Acts 23:27
“This man was seized by the Jews, and was about to be killed by them when I came with the soldiers and rescued him, having learned that he was a Roman.

--------------------

Acts 21:30
All the city was moved and the people ran together. They seized Paul and dragged him out of the temple. Immediately the doors were shut.

Acts 21:31
As they were trying to kill him, news came up to the commanding officer of the regiment that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.

Acts 21:32
Immediately he took soldiers and centurions and ran down to them. They, when they saw the chief captain and the soldiers, stopped beating Paul.

Acts 21:33
Then the commanding officer came near, arrested him, commanded him to be bound with two chains, and inquired who he was and what he had done.

Acts 23:10
When a great argument arose, the commanding officer, fearing that Paul would be torn in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him by force from among them and bring him into the barracks.

-----

Acts 23:23
He called to himself two of the centurions, and said, “Prepare two hundred soldiers to go as far as Caesarea, with seventy horsemen and two hundred men armed with spears, at the third hour of the night.”

Acts 23:24
He asked them to provide mounts, that they might set Paul on one, and bring him safely to Felix the governor.

Acts 23:25
He wrote a letter like this:

Acts 23:26
“Claudius Lysias to the most excellent governor Felix: Greetings.

Acts 23:27
“This man was seized by the Jews, and was about to be killed by them when I came with the soldiers and rescued him, having learned that he was a Roman.

Acts 23:28
Desiring to know the cause why they accused him, I brought him down to their council.

Acts 23:29
I found him to be accused about questions of their law, but not to be charged with anything worthy of death or of imprisonment.

Acts 23:30
When I was told that the Jews lay in wait for the man, I sent him to you immediately, charging his accusers also to bring their accusations against him before you. Farewell.”

Acts 23:31
So the soldiers, carrying out their orders, took Paul and brought him by night to Antipatris.

Acts 23:32
But on the next day they left the horsemen to go with him, and returned to the barracks.

Acts 23:33
When they came to Caesarea and delivered the letter to the governor, they also presented Paul to him.

Acts 23:34
When the governor had read it, he asked what province he was from. When he understood that he was from Cilicia, he said,

Acts 23:35
“I will hear you fully when your accusers also arrive.” He commanded that he be kept in Herod’s palace.

Acts 22:25
When they had tied him up with thongs, Paul asked the centurion who stood by, “Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman, and not found guilty?”

Acts 22:26
When the centurion heard it, he went to the commanding officer and told him, “Watch what you are about to do, for this man is a Roman!”

Acts 22:27
The commanding officer came and asked him, “Tell me, are you a Roman?” He said, “Yes.”

Acts 22:28
The commanding officer answered, “I bought my citizenship for a great price.” Paul said, “But I was born a Roman.”

Acts 22:29
Immediately those who were about to examine him departed from him, and the commanding officer also was afraid when he realized that he was a Roman, because he had bound him.

Acts 16:37
But Paul said to them, “They have beaten us publicly without a trial, men who are Romans, and have cast us into prison! Do they now release us secretly? No, most certainly, but let them come themselves and bring us out!”

Acts 21:39
But Paul said, “I am a Jew from Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no insignificant city. I beg you, allow me to speak to the people.”

Acts 25:10
But Paul said, “I am standing before Caesar’s judgment seat, where I ought to be tried. I have done no wrong to the Jews, as you also know very well.

-----

Acts 23:12
When it was day, some of the Jews banded together and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink until they had killed Paul.

Acts 23:13
There were more than forty people who had made this conspiracy.

Acts 23:14
They came to the chief priests and the elders, and said, “We have bound ourselves under a great curse to taste nothing until we have killed Paul.

Acts 23:15
Now therefore, you with the council inform the commanding officer that he should bring him down to you tomorrow, as though you were going to judge his case more exactly. We are ready to kill him before he comes near.”

Acts 23:16
But Paul’s sister’s son heard they were lying in wait, and he came and entered into the barracks and told Paul.

Acts 23:17
Paul summoned one of the centurions and said, “Bring this young man to the commanding officer, for he has something to tell him.”

Acts 23:18
So he took him and brought him to the commanding officer and said, “Paul, the prisoner, summoned me and asked me to bring this young man to you. He has something to tell you.”

Acts 23:19
The commanding officer took him by the hand, and going aside, asked him privately, “What is it that you have to tell me?”

Acts 23:20
He said, “The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul down to the council tomorrow, as though intending to inquire somewhat more accurately concerning him.

Acts 23:21
Therefore don’t yield to them, for more than forty men lie in wait for him, who have bound themselves under a curse to neither eat nor drink until they have killed him. Now they are ready, looking for the promise from you.”

Acts 23:22
So the commanding officer let the young man go, charging him, “Tell no one that you have revealed these things to me.”

Acts 12:11
When Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I truly know that the Lord has sent out his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from everything the Jewish people were expecting.”

Acts 7:10
and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. He made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
