Acts 26:24 in Context — Acts 26

22 Porém tendo eu obtido socorro de Deus, permaneço até o dia de hoje, dando testemunho tanto a pequenos como a grandes; não dizendo nada além dos que as [coisas] que os profetas e Moisés tinham dito que estavam para acontecer;

23 [Isto é] , que o Cristo sofreria, e sendo o primeiro da ressurreição dos mortos, ia anunciar a luz a este povo e aos gentios.

24 E tendo [Paulo] dito isto em [sua] defesa, Festo disse em alta voz: Tu estás louco, Paulo; as muitas escrituras te fizeram enlouquecer!

25 Mas ele [respondeu] : Eu não estou louco, excelentíssimo Festo; mas eu declaro palavras de verdade e de um são juízo;

26 Porque o rei, a quem eu estou falando livremente, ele sabe [muito bem] destas coisas; porque eu não creio que nenhuma disto lhe seja oculto; por que isto não foi feito num canto.
