Adam Clarke, on Acts 13:28
Adam Clarke · 1762–1832
Acts 13:28 · Douay-Rheims
“And finding no cause of death in him, they desired of Pilate, that they might kill him.”
On this verse:
“They found no cause of death in him - No reason why he should be condemned. Though they accused him of several things, yet they could not substantiate the most trifling charge against him; and yet, in opposition to all justice and equity, desired Pilate to put him to death! This points their perfidy in the strongest light.”
