Appeal » Paul makes, to caesar
Then said Paul, I stand at Cesar's tribunal, where I ought to be tried: I have done no wrong to the Jews, as thou very well knowest. For if I am indeed doing them wrong, and have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die: but if there be nothing in what these men accuse me of, no one can give me up to them.
But when Paul appealed, to be reserved to the hearing of our sovereign, I ordered him to be kept till I could send him to Cesar. Then Agrippa said to Festus, I should be willing to hear the man myself. And he said, thou shalt hear him to-morrow. The next day therefore, Agrippa and Bernice coming with much pomp, and entering into the court, together with the chief officers, and men of greatest eminence in the city, at the command of Festus Paul was brought in. read more.

Concerning whom I have nothing certain to write to our sovereign: wherefore I have brought him out before you, and especially before thee, O king Agrippa, that after examination is made I may have somewhat to write. For it seems to me absurd, to send a prisoner and not to signify the crimes laid against him."

Paul » His examination before herod agrippa ii
And some days after king Agrippa and Bernice came to Cesarea to salute Festus. And as they spent several days there, Festus related Paul's case to the king, saying, There is a man left in custody by Felix: concerning whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews appeared in court, desiring judgement against him. read more.
To whom I answered, it is not the custom of the Romans to give up any man to destruction, till he that is accused have the accusers face to face, and have an opportunity of making his defence concerning the accusation. Therefore when they were come hither, making no delay, I sat on the tribunal the next day, and ordered the man to be brought before me. Against whom, when the accusers stood up, they brought no charge of such things as I supposed they would: but had certain questions against him concerning their own religion; and of one Jesus that was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive. But I being in doubt as to the dispute concerning these matters, asked him, if he would go to Jerusalem, and there be tried concerning these things. But when Paul appealed, to be reserved to the hearing of our sovereign, I ordered him to be kept till I could send him to Cesar. Then Agrippa said to Festus, I should be willing to hear the man myself. And he said, thou shalt hear him to-morrow.
