After five days Ananias the high priest came down with some elders and a lawyer named Tertullus. These men presented their case against Paul to the governor.
The next day, since he wanted to find out exactly why Paul was being accused by the Jews, he released him and instructed the chief priests and all the Sanhedrin to convene. Then he brought Paul down and placed him before them.
Then the next day, Paul took the men, having purified himself along with them, and entered the temple, announcing the completion of the purification days when the offering for each of them would be made.As the seven days were about to end, the Jews from Asia saw him in the temple complex, stirred up the whole crowd, and seized him,
The next day, they returned to the barracks, allowing the cavalry to go on with him.When these men entered Caesarea and delivered the letter to the governor, they also presented Paul to him.
The following night, the Lord stood by him and said,“ Have courage! For as you have testified about Me in Jerusalem, so you must also testify in Rome.”
