1. Five days later Ananias, the high priest, went to the city of Caesarea with some of the older Jewish leaders and a lawyer named Tertullus. They had come to make charges against Paul before the governor.
2. Paul was called into the meeting, and Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, "Most Excellent Felix! Our people enjoy much peace because of you, and many wrong things in our country are being made right through your wise help.
3. We accept these things always and in every place, and we are thankful for them.
4. But not wanting to take any more of your time, I beg you to be kind and listen to our few words.
5. We have found this man to be a troublemaker, stirring up the Jews everywhere in the world. He is a leader of the Nazarene group.
6. Also, he was trying to make the Temple unclean, but we stopped him.
