Acts22:29

29 Then straightway they departed from him which should have examined him: and the chief captain also was afraid, after he knew that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him.

Who had bound him, and would have scourged him.

The Crime of breaking the Priviledges of the Roman Citizens, being accounted no less than Treason, and a Sin, as they called it, against the Majesty of that People; as afterwards it was as great an Offence against their Emperors.

Marginal references: Or, tortured him.
