ACTS 25:13 — KING JAMES VERSION 1 0
“And after certain days king Agrippa and Bernice came unto Cesarea to salute Festus.”
A few days later King Agrippa and Bernice arrived at Caesarea to pay their respects to Festus - King Agrippa II (great-grandson of Herod the Great) comes with his sister Bernice to greet the new procurator; their arrival marks a shift in the narrative. Luke notes their coming 'with great pomp' (meta pollēs phantasias, meta pollēs phantasias-'with great display'). These are the last human authorities Paul will face before Rome; their engagement prepares for the witness before Agrippa in chapter 26.
