Acts 22:28–30
28The commanding officer answered, “I bought my citizenship for a great price.” Paul said, “But I was born a Roman.”↗
29Immediately those who were about to examine him departed from him, and the commanding officer also was afraid when he realized that he was a Roman, because he had bound him.↗
30But on the next day, desiring to know the truth about why he was accused by the Jews, he freed him from the bonds and commanded the chief priests and all the council to come together, and brought Paul down and set him before them.↗
