A Journey Through Luke & Acts

DAY 38 OF 40

When Paul arrives in Caesarea, he is put on trial before the governor, Felix. Paul makes his case, testifying that he hopes in the God of Israel and shares in the same hopes of resurrection as his accusers. Felix sees no reason to condemn the man, but he doesn’t know what to do with him either, so he detains him without legal cause for two years. Throughout Paul’s custody, Felix’s wife requests to hear from Paul and Jesus. Felix comes to hear too and is frightened by the implications of Jesus’ Kingdom. He avoids the discussion but still summons Paul regularly in hopes of receiving a bribe from him. Finally Felix is replaced by Porcius Festus, and Paul’s case is examined again before the Jews who are still seeking his death. Paul again pleads innocent, and in response, Festus asks if he’s willing to move the trial to Jerusalem. But Paul does not agree and appeals to be tried in Rome before Caesar. Festus grants his request. Now just as Jesus said (Acts 23:11), Paul will bring Jesus’ cause to Rome.
