Commentary on Acts 21:33
The chief captain's immediate action - binding Paul with 'two chains' - fulfilled Agabus's prophecy (Acts 21:11) precisely. His inquiry 'who he was, and what he had done' shows the Romans' concern for order over justice. The Jews' confused responses revealed their accusations were emotional rather than factual, demonstrating how religious rage often lacks substantive foundation.
