In context

15While I was in Jerusalem, the chief priests and elders of the Jews presented their case and requested a judgment against him.

16I told them that it is not the Roman custom to hand a man over before he has had an opportunity to face his accusers and defend himself against their charges.

17So when they came here with me, I did not delay. The next day I sat on the judgment seat and ordered that the man be brought in.

18But when his accusers rose to speak, they did not charge him with any of the crimes I had expected.

19They only had some contentions with him regarding their own religion and a certain Jesus who had died, but whom Paul affirmed to be alive.
