Reading the Bible in Historical Sequence Part 12Намуна
AD 62 King Agrippa would release Paul if not for his appeal to Caesar. The voyage is difficult. They reach Rome (with Luke) and for two years, though a prisoner, Paul witnesses to Caesar’s household and to all who visit him. In AD 63 James is executed in Jerusalem.
Note: In AD 63 James, the brother of Jesus and the first leader of the Church in Jerusalem, was stoned to death at the instigation of the high priest Ananus, according to Josephus. Ananus was a bold and headstrong man who, soon after the death of procurator Festus and before his replacement had arrived, took the opportunity at the lack of a Roman ruler to call the Sanhedrin together to decide James’ execution. Ananus accused James of transgressing the law.
