ACTS 23:11 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul: for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness also at Rome.”
The following night the Lord stood by him and said, 'Take courage; for as you have testified about Me in Jerusalem, so you must testify also in Rome' — a night vision (paralleling Ananias and the temple vision) reinforces Paul's calling. The risen Lord promises that Paul's witness will extend to Rome; Jerusalem is not the endpoint but the midpoint of his martyrological journey.
