Acts 22:28-30

²⁸And the chief captain answered, With a great sum obtained I this citizenship. And Paul said, But I am a Roman born.

²⁹They then that were about to examine him straightway departed from him: and the chief captain also was afraid when he knew that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him.

³⁰But on the morrow, desiring to know the certainty wherefore he was accused of the Jews, he loosed him, and commanded the chief priests and all the council to come together, and brought Paul down and set him before them.
