Last week we ended by King Agrippa and Festus realizing Paul would have been able to be set free had he not appealed to Caesar. During our Bible study on Tuesday we looked into the storm at sea and the subsequent shipwreck that Paul experienced on his way to Rome on the island of Malta. We saw how he was able to heal and bring the gospel there. This is the situation that provides an immediate context to the passage we will be looking at today.
