Prisoners » Kindness to » By julius, the centurion
When it was decided that we should sail for Italy, they proceeded to hand over Paul and a few other prisoners to the custody of Julius, a centurion of the Imperial Regiment.
When we finally entered Rome, Paul was allowed to live by himself with the soldier to guard him.
The next day we touched at Sidon. There Julius treated Paul kindly, and gave him leave to visit his friends and refresh himself.
After this Paul lived for two whole years in his own rented house, and used to receive all who came to see him. He continued to preach the kingdom of God, and to teach about the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, quite unmolested.
