Matthew Poole and continuators on Acts 25:27

27 For it seemeth to me unreasonable to send a prisoner, and not withal to signifie the crimes laid against him.

So great a clamour, so hot a Pursuit, and yet after all this the Judg (who would willingly have condemned Paul, and gratified the Iews) knows not wherefore all this stir had been: But the more must he have been self-condemned that durst not absolve or free a Prisoner who was detained only by the power and multitude of his Adversaries.
