Where it appears

Appears 2 times in the Bible.

  • Acts 23:29 I soon discovered the charge was something regarding their religious law—certainly nothing worthy of imprisonment or death.
  • Acts 25:16 I pointed out to them that Roman law does not convict people without a trial. They must be given an opportunity to confront their accusers and defend themselves.
