Acts 25:14

"Festus laid Paul's case before the king" The reason for this is that Festus really does not understand the theological issues that separate Paul and the Sadducees (19-20). The presence of Agrippa II is timely because Agrippa is far more versed in the detailed differences among the Jews and he does know something about this new Christian movement. Festus just could not see how Paul,. Jew who seemed to show such respect for the Law and the temple was so violently accused by the Jewish leaders.
