Acts 23:27-29

Expanded Bible

²⁷ Some of the Jews had ·taken [seized] this man and ·planned [were about] to kill him. But I learned that he is a Roman citizen, so I went with my soldiers and ·saved [rescued] him. ²⁸ I wanted to know ·why [^Lthe charge/reason] they were accusing him, so I brought him before their ·council meeting [Sanhedrin]. ²⁹ I ·learned [^Lfound; discovered] that the accusation had to do with ·questions [debates; disputed matters] about their own law [^Cthe law of Moses], but no charge was worthy of death or ·jail [chains].
