And when he had tarried there more than ten days A short time for a new governor to stay at such a city as Jerusalem; he went down to Cesarea As he had said, several of the Jews attending him, as being determined to lose no time, but to prosecute the affair in the most strenuous manner they possibly could; and the next day sitting in the judgment-seat As the governor used to do, when any cause of consequence was brought before him; commanded Paul to be brought And make his appearance. And the Jews, standing round about An expression which intimates that there were many of them; laid many and grievous complaints against Paul Doubtless like those which Tertullus had formerly advanced before Felix; which they could not prove By proper witnesses. When many accusations against any one are heaped, frequently not one of them is true. While he answered, Neither against the law of the Jews, &c. I openly deny their charge in every branch of it, and challenge them to make it out by proper evidence in any instance, or in any degree. To a general charge a general answer was sufficient.
