To Festus, Paul was one prisoner whom the previous governor had left behind. The high priests and the elders asked him to condemn Paul, but when he actually opened the trial, the evil deeds Festus had supposed did not come out. To the one hearing the case, it was not clear what the problem was. Yet in the words with which Festus explains this matter to Agrippa, the content that Paul preached even under threat to his life is revealed. Paul was testifying of the work in which Jesus, through the baptism He received from John, had all the sins of the world, which include the sins of our entire lifetime, transferred to Him once and for all, shed His blood on the Cross to pay the price of those sins, and rose again from death.
