فَقَالَ بُولُسُ:«أَنَا وَاقِفٌ لَدَى كُرْسِيِّ وِلاَيَةِ قَيْصَرَ حَيْثُ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ أُحَاكَمَ. أَنَا لَمْ أَظْلِمِ الْيَهُودَ بِشَيْءٍ، كَمَا تَعْلَمُ أَنْتَ أَيْضًا جَيِّدًا.

Then said Paul, I stand at CÃ&brvbrsar's judgment seat--that is, I am already before the proper tribunal. This seems to imply that he understood Festus to propose handing him over to the Sanhedrim for judgment (and see on Act 25:11), with a mere promise of protection from him. But from going to Jerusalem at all he was too well justified in shrinking, for there assassination had been quite recently planned against him. to the Jews have I done no wrong, as thou knowest very well--literally, "better," that is, (perhaps), better than to press such a proposal. if there be none of these things . . . no man may deliver me unto them--The word signifies to "surrender in order to gratify" another.

However, we have here much the same management of Paul's case as we had in the foregoing chapter; cognizance is here taken of it, I. By Festus the governor; it is brought before him by the Jews (Act 25:1-3). The hearing of it is appointed to be, not at Jerusalem, as the Jews desired, out at Caesarea (Act 25:4-6). The Jews appear against Paul and accuse him (Act 25:7), but he stands upon his own innocency (Act 25:8); and to avoid the removing of the cause to Jerusalem, to which he was pressed to consent, he at length appeals to Caesar (Act 25:9-12). II. By king Agrippa, to whom Festus relates his case (Act 25:13-21), and Agrippa desires he might have the hearing of it himself (Act 25:22). The court is accordingly set, and Paul brought to the bar (Act 25:23), and Festus opens the cause (Act 25:24-27), to introduce Paul's defence in the next chapter.
افتح المصدر ↗25:10-11 Festus’s suggestion that Paul be tried in Jerusalem motivated the apostle’s appeal to Caesar. Paul was not afraid of death, but he objected to being turned over to a biased court intent on murder, not justice (25:7).

بَلْ قَدْ رَفَضْنَا خَفَايَا الْخِزْيِ، غَيْرَ سَالِكِينَ فِي مَكْرٍ، وَلاَ غَاشِّينَ كَلِمَةَ اللهِ، بَلْ بِإِظْهَارِ الْحَقِّ، مَادِحِينَ أَنْفُسَنَا لَدَى ضَمِيرِ كُلِّ إِنْسَانٍ قُدَّامَ اللهِ.
لأَنَّهُ عَلِمَ أَنَّهُمْ أَسْلَمُوهُ حَسَدًا.
الَّذِينَ لَمَّا فَحَصُوا كَانُوا يُرِيدُونَ أَنْ يُطْلِقُونِي، لأَنَّهُ لَمْ تَكُنْ فِيَّ عِلَّةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ لِلْمَوْتِ.
وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَلَمَّا وَجَدْتُ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ شَيْئًا يَسْتَحِقُّ الْمَوْتَ، وَهُوَ قَدْ رَفَعَ دَعْوَاهُ إِلَى أُوغُسْطُسَ، عَزَمْتُ أَنْ أُرْسِلَهُ.
وَانْصَرَفُوا وَهُمْ يُكَلِّمُونَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا قَائِلِينَ:«إِنَّ هذَا الإِنْسَانَ لَيْسَ يَفْعَلُ شَيْئًا يَسْتَحِقُّ الْمَوْتَ أَوِ الْقُيُودَ».
فَوَجَدْتُهُ مَشْكُوًّا عَلَيْهِ مِنْ جِهَةِ مَسَائِلِ نَامُوسِهِمْ. وَلكِنَّ شَكْوَى تَسْتَحِقُّ الْمَوْتَ أَوِ الْقُيُودَ لَمْ تَكُنْ عَلَيْهِ.
فَلَمَّا اجْتَمَعُوا إِلَى هُنَا جَلَسْتُ مِنْ دُونِ إِمْهَال فِي الْغَدِ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ الْوِلاَيَةِ، وَأَمَرْتُ أَنْ يُؤْتَى بِالرَّجُلِ.
وَبَعْدَ مَا صَرَفَ عِنْدَهُمْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ عَشَرَةِ أَيَّامٍ انْحَدَرَ إِلَى قَيْصَرِيَّةَ. وَفِي الْغَدِ جَلَسَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّ الْوِلاَيَةِ وَأَمَرَ أَنْ يُؤْتَى بِبُولُسَ.
