King Agrippa, Bernice, Festus, Apostle Paul & the Council

King Agrippa and his wife, Queen Bernice, visited Governor Festus at an opportune time in the life of Apostle Paul. “Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Hast thou appealed unto Caesar; [U]nto Caesar shalt thou go[?]” (Acts 25:12). Recall the will of the Lord for Apostle Paul. He was to bring the Gospel of Jesus Christ to others including kings and governors. Therefore, King Agrippa and his wife, Queen Bernice, didn’t visit Festus by chance.

As a result, the other members of The Council reacted. “And they that stood by said, Revilest thou God’s high priest?” (Acts 23:4).
