ACTS 23:22 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“So the chief captain then let the young man depart, and charged him, See thou tell no man that thou hast shewed these things to me.”
So the commander let the young man go, instructing him, 'Tell no one that you have revealed these things to me' — the commander's discretion protects the nephew's safety; secrecy preserves the cover that enables a counter-plot. Paul's rescue requires deception too.
