In Acts 24–26 Paul remained in prison in Caesarea even though the Roman rulers knew he was innocent because they wanted to gain favor with the Jewish leaders. Paul appeared before Governors Festus and Felix, as well as King Herod Agrippa II who all found no legal reason to charge him. Paul was left with the choice to return to Jerusalem where he would most certainly be killed by the Jews or appeal to Caesar. He appealed to Caesar. Paul took the opportunity to share his testimony and the gospel of Jesus before these prominent leaders.
