Acts24:6
Who also hath gone about. Who has endeavoured.
To profane the temple. This was a serious, but unfounded charge. It arose from the gross calumny of the apostle, when they pretended that he had introduced Greeks into that sacred place, Acts 21:28. To this charge the apostle replies in Acts 24:18.
And would have judged. That is, would have condemned and punished.
According to our law. Their law, which forbade the introduction of strangers into the temple.
