God’s Witness Reaches Rome

¹⁶ When we entered Rome,^[a] Paul was allowed to live by himself with a soldier who guarded him. ¹⁷ Three days later, Paul called together the leaders of the Jews. When they had assembled, he said to them, “Gentlemen, brothers, although I had done nothing against the people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was handed over as a prisoner from Jerusalem to the Romans. ¹⁸ After they interrogated me, they wanted to release me, because there were no grounds for the death penalty in my case.
