Acts 28:17-21
Paul Addresses the Jewish Community in Rome
28:17 After three days Paul called the local Jewish leaders together. When they had assembled, he said to them, “Brothers, although I had done nothing against our people or the customs of our ancestors, from Jerusalem I was handed over as a prisoner to the Romans.
28:18 When they had heard my case, they wanted to release me, because there was no basis for a death sentence against me.
28:19 But when the Jews objected, I was forced to appeal to Caesar – not that I had some charge to bring against my own people.
28:20 So for this reason I have asked to see you and speak with you, for I am bound with this chain because of the hope of Israel.”
28:21 They replied, “We have received no letters from Judea about you, nor have any of the brothers come from there and reported or said anything bad about you.
