Expanded Bible

⁷ But the ·officer [tribune] Lysias came and used much force to take him from us. ⁸ And Lysias commanded ·those who wanted to accuse Paul [his accusers] to come to you.|^[a] By ·asking him questions [cross-examining him] yourself, you can ·decide [learn; come to know] ·if all these things are true [or the nature of our accusations].” ⁹ The ·others [^LJews] ·agreed [or joined in the attack] and said that all of this was true.
