Acts

And when it was told me how that the Jews laid wait for the man, I sent straightway to thee, and gave commandment to his accusers also to say before thee what they had against him. Farewell.

About whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed me, desiring to have judgment against him.

To whom I answered, It is not the manner of the Romans to deliver any man to die, before that he which is accused have the accusers face to face, and have licence to answer for himself concerning the crime laid against him.

Let them therefore, said he, which among you are able, go down with me, and accuse this man, if there be any wickedness in him.

I will hear thee, said he, when thine accusers are also come. And he commanded him to be kept in Herod’s judgment hall.
