Acts 21:37-39

The Voice

Paul: May I say something to you?

Commandant: Do you speak Greek? ³⁸ We thought you were that Egyptian who recently stirred a rebellion and led 4,000 assassins out into the desert. But if you speak Greek, then obviously you’re not the person we supposed.

Paul: ³⁹ No, I’m a Jew, originally from Tarsus in Cilicia. I’m a citizen from an important city. Please, I beg you, let me speak to the people.
