Acts 23:27-29

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁷ This man was seized [as prisoner] by the Jews, and was about to be killed by them when I came upon them with the troops and rescued him, because I learned that he is a Roman citizen.

²⁸ And wishing to know the exact accusation which they were making against him, I brought him down before their council (Sanhedrin),

²⁹ [Where] I found that he was charged in regard to questions of their own law, but he was accused of nothing that would call for death or [even] for imprisonment.
