Acts 23:30 (KJV)
Commentary on Acts 23:30
Lysias writes when it was told me how that the Jews laid wait for the man, using enedras (ἐνέδρας, ambush)—military terminology for hostile intent. His phrase I sent straightway to thee (Greek exautes, ἐξαυτῆς, immediately) shows decisive action protecting Roman justice. The closing Farewell (erroso, ἔρρωσο) was standard Latin correspondence formula (vale), meaning 'be strong/healthy.' Lysias transfers responsibility to Felix while establishing Paul's protected status as a Roman citizen accused of religious, not criminal, violations.
