Context of Acts 25:6
4But Festus answered, that Paul should be kept at Caesarea, and that he himself would depart shortly there . 5Let them therefore, said he, who among you are able, go down with me, and accuse this man, if there is any wickedness in him. And when he had tarried among them more than ten days, he went down to Caesarea; and the next day sitting on the judgment seat commanded Paul to be brought. 7And when he had come, the Jews who came down from Jerusalem stood around, and laid many and grievous complaints against Paul, which they could not prove. 8While he answered for himself, Neither against the law of the Jews, neither against the temple, nor yet against Caesar, have I committed any offence.

Griesbach admits this reading into the text: and of it Professor White says…Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 6More than ten days - See the margin. The Syriac reads it, “eight or ten.” The Vulgate, “not more than eight or ten.” The Coptic, “eight or ten.” Griesbach supposes this to be the true reading, and has admitted it into the text.
