Acts 26:24 in Context — Acts 26
22 Mais, grâce au secours de Dieu, j’ai subsisté jusqu’à ce jour, rendant témoignage devant les petits et les grands, sans m’écarter en rien de ce que les prophètes et Moïse ont déclaré devoir arriver,
23 savoir que le Christ souffrirait, et que, ressuscité le premier d’entre les morts, il annoncerait la lumière au peuple et aux nations.
24 Comme il parlait ainsi pour sa justification, Festus dit à haute voix: Tu es fou, Paul! Ton grand savoir te fait déraisonner.
25 Je ne suis point fou, très excellent Festus, répliqua Paul; ce sont, au contraire, des paroles de vérité et de bon sens que je prononce.
26 Le roi est instruit de ces choses, et je lui en parle librement; car je suis persuadé qu’il n’en ignore aucune, puisque ce n’est pas en cachette qu’elles se sont passées.
