Acts 23:17-22

Acts 23:17-22 TPT

Paul called for one of the captains and said, “Take this boy to the commander, for he has something important to report to him.” The captain took him to the commander and informed him, “Paul the prisoner asked me to bring this boy to you because he has something important for you to know.” The commander took him by the arm and led him aside in private and asked him, “What do you have to tell me?” He replied, “The Jews have plotted to kill Paul. Tomorrow they will ask you to bring him again to the supreme council under the pretense of wanting to question him further. Don’t believe them, because they have forty men lying in wait to ambush Paul. These men have sworn an oath not to eat or drink until they have killed him. They’re all waiting for you to agree to their request so they can carry out their plot.” The commander dismissed Paul’s nephew after directing him, “Tell no one that you’ve reported these things to me.”
