ACTS 26:22 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come:”
'But God has helped me to this very day; so I stand here and testify to small and great alike. I am saying nothing beyond what the prophets and Moses said would happen- - Paul celebrates God's aid (epikoria, epikoria-'help, assistance') 'to this very day' (achri tēs hēmeras tautēs, achri tēs hēmeras tautēs). His testimony before kings (small and great, mikroi te kai megaloi, mikroi te kai megaloi) is itself vindication: he is a living witness. His teaching is not novelty but 'nothing beyond what the prophets and Moses said would happen' (ouden ektos hōn ho logos, ouden ektos hōn ho logos-'nothing outside what...'). He grounds his claims in Scripture.
