ACTS 23:19 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Then the chief captain took him by the hand, and went with him aside privately, and asked him, What is that thou hast to tell me?”
The commander took him by the hand and stepping aside, began to inquire of him privately, 'What is it that you have to report?' — the commander's private hearing of the nephew grants him credibility and suggests that Rome recognizes the legitimacy of Jewish plots against Paul. The secret communication ironically parallels the secret oath-conspiracy.
