The stormy career OF Faul
reached its climax in his address
before Agrippa. The enemies OF
the apostle long had plotted his
death. Finally they succeeded
in seizing him, and formal
charges were filed.
In a hearing before Felix, an
orator named Tertullus delivered
an address accusing Paul OF
treason and of defiling the
temple. Both charges were false.
The Jews had no authority to
execute Paul, so they sought to
get q verdict of death from rep
resentatives OF Rome.
When Paul was allowed to
speak for himself he declared
that latter the way which they
call heresy, so worship ! che
God of my fathers"
Felix kept Paul prisoner for
two years. Then followed 9
hearing before Porcius Festus.
Again accusations were made
against Paul, and again the
apostle professed his innocence.
No doubt disgusted with the
vaciIlation Of the officials, Paul
appealed to Caesar. His words
were dramatic: Il stand at
Caesars judgment seat, where ]
ought to be judged; to the Jews
have done no wrong, as thou
very we'll knowest. appeal
unto Caesar"
When Agrippa came to visit
Festus at Caesarea, the former
expressed a desire to hear Paul.
Accordingly the apostle was
brought before him. Before
Agrippa, Bernice, officials and
dignitaries, Paul delivered his
defense.
He told Of his early training,
how he had been schooled as a
Pharisee. He told of his faith in
the resurrection, adding why
should it be thought q thing in
credible with you, that God
should raise the dead 2
