Then Agrippa said unto Festus, I would also hear the man myself. Tomorrow, said he, you shall hear him.
All Commentaries on Acts 25:22 Go To Acts 25
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Agrippa has the same curiosity of hearing Paul, as Herod formerly had of seeing Jesus. The apostle's name had, no doubt, become famous enough to reach the ears, and arrest the attention of Agrippa. Curiosity is certainly not the best motive a person can bring with him to the investigation of religious truth: still it may occasionally become productive of good. The king was half persuaded to embrace the Christian faith. A better motive, or more serious attention, may induce some to embrace the truth, which accident may first have discovered to them.
