ACTS 22:24 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“The chief captain commanded him to be brought into the castle, and bade that he should be examined by scourging; that he might know wherefore they cried so against him.”
the commander ordered him to be brought into the barracks, saying that he should be examined by scourging so that he might find out the reason why they were shouting against him in this way — the commander, unable to understand the theological furor, resorts to military interrogation via scourging. Roman pragmatism misreads Jewish religious passion.
