ROMAN EMPIRE

Paul and the Roman Tribune

Acts 22:22-29

Paul’s Roman Citizenship

Acts 22

25 But when they had stretched him out for the whips,

Paul said to the centurion who was standing by,

“Is it lawful for you to flog a man who is a Roman citizen

and uncondemned?”

26 When the centurion heard this,

he went to the tribune and said to him,

“What are you about to do?

For this man is a Roman citizen.”

Acts 22

English Standard Version (ESV)

Paul and the Roman Tribune

²²Up to this word they listened to him. Then they raised their voices and said, “Away with such a fellow from the earth! For he should not be allowed to live.” ²³And as they were shouting and throwing off their cloaks and flinging dust into the air, ²⁴the tribune ordered him to be brought intothe barracks, saying that he should be examined by flogging, to find out why they were shouting against him like this. ²⁵But when they had stretched him out for the whips,^[d] Paul said to the centurion who was standing by, “Is it lawful for you to flog a man who is a Roman citizen and uncondemned?” ²⁶When the centurion heard this, he went to the tribune and said to him, “What are you about to do? For this man is a Roman citizen.” ²⁷So the tribune came and said to him, “Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?” And he said, “Yes.” ²⁸The tribune answered, “I bought this citizenship for a large sum.” Paul said, “But I am a citizen by birth.” ²⁹So those who were about to examine him withdrew from him immediately, and the tribune also was afraid, for he realized that Paul was a Roman citizen and that he had bound him.
