Claudius Lysias to the most excellent procurator Felix, greeting. I went with the soldiery and rescued this man, when he was siezed by the Jews, and about to be killed by them, having learned that he is a Roman; and wishing to know the cause for which they accuse him, I took him down to their Sanhedrim, and found him criminated in respect to questions of their law, but charged with nothing worthy of death or bonds. Being informed that a conspiracy was about to be formed against the man, I immediately sent to you, commanding also his accusers to speak before you. The soldiers therefore took Paul as they were commanded and brought him by night to Antipatris, and the next day leaving the horsemen to go with him, they returned to the fortress. And when they came to Caesarea, and had delivered the letter to the procurator, they also presented Paul to him. And having read, he asked of what province he was; and learning that he was of Cilicia, I will hear you, he said, when your accusers have come; and he commanded him to be kept in the Praetorium of Herod.
