Context of Acts 25:17
15About whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed me, desiring to have judgment against him. 16To whom I answered, It is not the manner of the Romans to deliver any man to die, before he who is accused hath the accusers face to face, and hath opportunity to answer for himself concerning the charge laid against him. Therefore, when they had come here, without any delay on the next day I sat on the judgment seat, and commanded the man to be brought forth. 18Against whom when the accusers stood up, they brought no accusation of such things as I supposed: 19But had certain questions against him of their own religion, and of one Jesus, who was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.
