26. Claudius Lysias unto the most excellent governor Felix [sendeth] greeting. 27. This man was taken of the Jews, and should have been killed of them: then came I with an army, and rescued him, having understood that he was a Roman. 28. And when I would have known the cause wherefore they accused him, I brought him forth into their council: 29. Whom I perceived to be accused of questions of their law, but to have nothing laid to his charge worthy of death or of bonds. 30. And when it was told me how that the Jews laid wait for the man, I sent straightway to thee, and gave commandment to his accusers also to say before thee what [they had] against him. Farewell. 31. Then the soldiers, as it was commanded them, took Paul, and brought [him] by night to Antipatris. 32. On the morrow they left the horsemen to go with him, and returned to the castle: 33. Who, when they came to Caesarea, and delivered the epistle to the governor, presented Paul also before him.

Excellent. This and the word “greeting” reflect good Greek literary usage of the day (see on Luke 1:3; cf. Acts 1:1; 15:23; James 1:1).
