Acts 23:23-35 - To Caesarea By Night
23 And having called a certain two of the centurions, he said, Get ready two hundred soldiers that they may go unto Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and two hundred spearmen, from the third hour of the night; 24 and prepare beasts of burden, that, having carried away Paul, you may deliver him safe to Felix the governor.
25 Writing a letter having this form:
26 Claudius Lysias to the most noble governor Felix, greeting.
27 This man, having been taken by the Jews, and being about to be put to death by them, having interposed with my army, I took out of their hands, having learned that he is a Roman: 28 and wishing to know the cause on account of which they clamored against him, I led him into their sanhedrim: 29 whom I found accused concerning questions of their law, having no charge worthy of death or bonds. 30 And a plot from them being revealed to me to be against the man, I sent him to thee, having commanded his accusers also to speak in thy presence.
31 Then indeed the soldiers, according to that which had been commanded them, taking Paul led him by night to Antipatris: 32 And on the following day letting the cavalry go on with him, they returned to the castle. 33 Who, having come into Caesarea, and delivered the letter to the governor, also committed Paul to him. 34 And having read, and made inquiry of what jurisdiction, 35 and ascertaining that he is from Cilicia, said, I will hear thee, when thy accusers may also be present, having commanded that he should be kept in Herod's judgment hall.
