In the following scripture Paul is taken to Herod Agrippa I and put on trial. Paul uses this trial to share the story of the gospel, putting the life of Jesus in the context of the Old Testament and Jewish tradition.
Then Agrippa said to Paul, “You have permission to speak for yourself.” So Paul motioned with his hand and began his defense: “King Agrippa, I consider myself fortunate to stand before you today as I make my defense against all the accusations of the Jews (Acts 26:1-2)
