Acts
Chapters 24:1-9
Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version
1Five days later Ananias, the high priest, went to the city of Caesarea. He brought with him some of the older Jewish leaders and a lawyer named Tertullus. They went to Caesarea to make charges against Paul before the governor.
2-3Paul was called into the meeting, and Tertullus began to make his accusations. Tertullus said, “Most Honorable Felix, our people enjoy much peace because of you, and many wrong things in our country are being made right through your wise help. For this we all continue to be very thankful.
4But I don’t want to take any more of your time. So I will say only a few words. Please be patient.
5This man is a troublemaker. He causes trouble with the Jews everywhere in the world. He is a leader of the Nazarene group.
6-8Also, he was trying to make the Temple unclean, but we stopped him. You can decide if all this is true. Ask him some questions yourself.”
9The other Jews agreed and said it was all true.
