Acts 24:16-20

Paul proceeds simply to tell Felix about his arrival at Jerusalem only twelve days ago on the philanthropic errand of bringing the benefactions of the Gentile churches to the poor saints at Jerusalem, and his participation in the simple ceremonies of temporary Nazaritish vows and sacrifices peculiar to his people since the days of Moses, during which they assaulted him in the temple, on accusation of stirring up sedition, which was utterly untrue, and they had signally failed to prove their charges when he stood before the Sanhedrim in Jerusalem in the custody of Lysias, and he now challenges them to prove their charges.
