Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Acts 24:7
COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD
7. But . . . Lysias came upon us, and with great violence took him out of our hands —a wilful falsehood and calumnious charge against a public officer. He had commanded the Sanhedrim to meet for no other purpose than to "judge him according to their law"; and only when, instead of doing so, they fell to disputing among themselves, and the prisoner was in danger of being "pulled in pieces of them" ( :- ) —or as his own letter says "killed of them" ( Acts 23:27 ) —did he rescue him, as was his duty, "by force" out of their hands. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-8" class="com-number"
