22`Having obtained, therefore, help from God, till this day, I have stood witnessing both to small and to great, saying nothing besides the things that both the prophets and Moses spake of as about to come,
23that the Christ is to suffer, whether first by a rising from the dead, he is about to proclaim light to the people and to the nations.`
24And, he thus making a defence, Festus with a loud voice said, `Thou art mad, Paul; much learning doth turn thee mad;`
25and he saith, `I am not mad, most noble Festus, but of truth and soberness the sayings I speak forth;
26for the king doth know concerning these things, before whom also I speak boldly, for none of these things, I am persuaded, are hidden from him; for this thing hath not been done in a corner;
27thou dost believe, king Agrippa, the prophets? I have known that thou dost believe!`
28And Agrippa said unto Paul, `In a little thou dost persuade me to become a Christian!`
