ACTS 22:27 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Then the chief captain came, and said unto him, Tell me, art thou a Roman? He said, Yea.”
The commander came and said to him, 'Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?' And he said, 'Yes' — the commander's surprise is palpable; a Jewish prisoner claiming Roman citizenship was unexpected. Paul's citizenship, inherited from his Tarsus birth, reveals the complexity of identity in the Hellenistic world.
