Acts 26:31
Compare all
29 And Paul said, a“I would to God that not only you, but also all who hear me today, might become both almost and altogether such as I am, except for these chains.”  
30 When he had said these things, the king stood up, as well as the governor and Bernice and those who sat with them;
31 and when they had gone aside, they talked among themselves, saying, a“This man is doing nothing deserving of death or chains.”  
32 Then Agrippa said to Festus, “This man might have been set afree bif he had not appealed to Caesar.”

Acts 26:31

This man doeth nothing worthy of death - This was the conclusion to which they had come after hearing all that the Jews had to allege against him. It was the result of the whole investigation; and we have, therefore, the concurring testimony of Claudius Lysias Acts 23:29, of Felix Acts 24, of Festus Acts 25:26-27, and of Agrippa, as to the innocence of Paul. More honorable and satisfactory testimony of his innocence he could not have desired. It was a full acquittal from all the charges against him; and though he was to be sent to Rome, yet he went there with every favorable prospect of being acquitted there also.
