Acts 26:1 - Forerunner Commentary

Acts 26:1

Paul’s Early Life

1 Then Agrippa said to Paul, “You are permitted to speak for yourself.” So Paul stretched out his hand and answered for himself:

2 “I think myself ^ahappy, King Agrippa, because today I shall answer ^bfor myself before you concerning all the things of which I am ^caccused by the Jews,

3 especially because you are expert in all customs and questions which have to do with the Jews. Therefore I beg you to hear me patiently.

4 “My manner of life from my youth, which was spent from the beginning among my own nation at Jerusalem, all the Jews know.

5 They knew me from the first, if they were willing to testify, that according to ^athe strictest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.
