Paul » His examination before herod agrippa ii
And after some days king Agrippa and Bernice came to Caesarea to greet Festus.

To them I answered, It is not the custom of the Romans to deliver any man to destruction before he being accused may have the accusers face to face, and have had freedom to answer for himself concerning the accusation. Therefore, when they had come here, without any delay I sat on the judgment seat the next day and commanded the man to be brought, about whom, standing up, the accusers brought against him no charge of which I suspected, but they had certain questions about their own demon-worship, and about a certain Jesus dying, whom Paul affirmed to be alive. And because I was perplexed about this question, I asked whether he would go to Jerusalem and be judged there about these matters. But Paul having appealed to be reserved to the hearing of Augustus, I commanded him to be held until I might send him to Caesar. And Agrippa said to Festus, I also would like to hear the man myself. And he said, Tomorrow you shall hear him. And on the next day, when Agrippa and Bernice had come with great pomp and had entered into the auditorium with both the chiliarchs and principal men of the city, also Festus commanding, Paul was brought out. And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all those men present with us, you see this one about whom all the multitude of the Jews pleaded with me, both at Jerusalem and here, crying that he ought not to live any longer. But I had perceived nothing he had committed worthy of death, and that he himself has appealed to Augustus, I determined to send him, about whom I have no certain thing to write of him to my lord. Therefore I brought him before you, and especially before you, O king Agrippa, so that, after examination is made, I might have something to write. For it seems to me unreasonable to send a prisoner, and not to signify the charges against him.
