Acts 25:12

25:12 Then, after conferring with his council, 1  Festus 2  replied, “You have appealed to Caesar; 3  to Caesar 4  you will go!” 5 

1 tn That is, with his advisers.

2 sn See the note on Porcius Festus in 24:27.

3 tn Or “to the emperor” (“Caesar” is a title for the Roman emperor).

4 tn Or “to the emperor.”

5 sn “To Caesar you will go!” In all probability Festus was pleased to send Paul on to Rome and get this political problem out of his court.
