Acts 21:35-39

35When Paul got to the steps, he had to be carried by the soldiers because of the violence of the crowd,

36for the mass of people followed, yelling, “Get rid of him!”

37As he was about to be brought into the barracks, Paul said to the commander, “Am I allowed to say something to you?” He replied, “You know how to speak Greek?

38Aren’t you the Egyptian who started a revolt some time ago and led four thousand men of the Assassins into the wilderness?”

39Paul said, “I am a Jewish man from Tarsus of Cilicia, a citizen of an important city. Now I ask you, let me speak to the people.”
