Acts 23:28

28 And when I would have known the cause wherefore they accused him, I brought him forth into their council:

Ver. 28. I brought him forth into their council ] As being himself ignorant of their religion; and haply having as evil an opinion of it as Cicero had, who disdained at the Jews for their slighting the Roman superstition, and censured their religion as false, because they and their religion were in subjection to the Romans. a

a Gens illa quam chara Diis immortalibus esset docuit, quod est victa, quod elocata, quod servata. Cic. pro L. Fiacco.
