And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.
Ver. 1. In all good conscience] Good, both with the goodness of integrity and of tranquillity. A recta conscientia transversum unguem non oportet quenquam in omni sua vita discedere, saith Cicero (Ep. ad Attic.). Let a man keep his conscience clear. Better offend all the world than conscience.
