5 We have found this man to be a pestilence, stirring up dissension among the Jews (people of praise) all over the world. He is a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes, 6 and he even tried to desecrate the temple; so we seized him. [And we would have judged him according to our law. 7 But Lysias the commander came with great force and took him out of our hands, 8 ordering his accusers to come before you.] 8 By examining him yourself, you will be able to learn the truth about all our charges against him.
