Acts Chapter 19
Paul here is in Ephesus, and he asks some disciples if they received the Holy Spirit. The answered they never heard of this, so Paul lays hands on them and they receive the Holy Spirit. Some Jewish exorcists attempted to use Jesus' name to cast out demons. However, a demon said they heard of Paul and Jesus, but not them. They were then pounced on them and injured them. Then a riot occurred on Ephesus. They held back Paul from going to them, but several of hi friends did go. But when the croud brought them before the town clerk, but since they did not do anything illegal, he let them go.

Paul is now presenting his case before the High Priest Ananias. He presents a case which put at odds the Pharisees and the Sadducee's, which caused dissention between the two groups, which caused a plot to kill Paul. Because of this, Paul was placed in a jail that neither group had access to, and eventually sent Paul to Felix. the governor.

Paul now presents his case before King Agrippa. But what he states has more to do with the gospel and its importance rather than his own case. He speaks of his conversion to Christianity, especially regarding the appearance of Jesus. After Paul is finished, Agrippa states he sees no crime regarding Paul, but because Paul appealed to Caesar, he could not free him, and therefore sent him to Rome.
