After two years in prison, Paul’s case is brought before the new Roman governor, Festus. The Jewish leaders again accuse Paul and ask that he be brought to Jerusalem, secretly planning to ambush and kill him. Paul refuses and exercises his right as a Roman citizen by appealing his case to Caesar, which means he will be sent to Rome.

Before sending him, Festus asks King Agrippa II to hear Paul’s case. In a grand audience, Paul shares his testimony—describing his life as a Pharisee, his encounter with the risen Jesus on the road to Damascus, and the mission Christ gave him to proclaim the gospel. Paul declares that the prophets foretold that the Messiah would suffer and rise from the dead. Though Festus dismisses him as out of his mind, Paul boldly invites Agrippa and everyone listening to believe in Christ. Agrippa concludes that Paul has done nothing deserving imprisonment, but because he appealed to Caesar, he must be sent to Rome.
