Paul Speaks in His Own Defense

³⁷ As the soldiers were about to take Paul into the barracks, he asked the officer, “May I say something to you?”

The officer replied to Paul, “Can you speak Greek? ³⁸ Aren’t you the Egyptian who started a revolution not long ago and led four thousand terrorists into the desert?”

³⁹ Paul answered, “I’m a Jew, a citizen from the well-known city of Tarsus in Cilicia. I’m asking you to let me talk to the people.”
