Paul Sent to Governor Felix

Acts 23:23-30

And he called vnto him two certaine Centurions, saying, Make readie two hundred souldiers, that they may go to Cæsarea, and horsemen three score and ten, and two hundred with dartes, at the thirde houre of the night.

And let them make readie an horse, that Paul being set on, may be brought safe vnto Felix the Gouernour.

And he wrote an epistle in this maner:

Claudius Lysias vnto the most noble Gouernour Felix sendeth greeting.

As this man was taken of the Iewes, and shoulde haue bene killed of them, I came vpon them with the garison, and rescued him, perceiuing that he was a Romane.

And when I would haue knowen the cause, wherefore they accused him, I brought him forth into their Council.

There I perceiued that hee was accused of questions of their Lawe, but had no crime worthy of death, or of bondes.

And when it was shewed me, how that the Iewes layd waite for the man, I sent him straightway to thee, and commanded his accusers to speake before thee the thinges that they had against him. Farewell.
