The whole Jewish community has appealed to me concerning him, both in Jerusalem and here, shouting that he should not live any longer.(B) 25 I found that he had not done anything deserving of death, but when he himself appealed to the Emperor, I decided to send him.(C) 26 I have nothing definite to write to my lord about him.
