Study 48 From The Book of Acts Is: Acts 24: 22
– 25: 12
- 24:
22-27. Paul before Felix. What four
motives controlled Felix’s treatment of Paul? Do self-interest and fear ever stop you
from doing what is right?
- 25:1-12.
Paul before Festus. Why did Paul
refuse Festus’s offer for a trial in Jerusalem, and instead, as a Roman
citizen, claim his right to appeal to Caesar? Do you think Paul was taking
the right course of action regardless of the consequences?
Note. 25:11. A Roman
citizen could appeal to a higher Roman magistrate against his sentence, or at
any stage in his trial. Paul now appeals
to Nero.
