Definitions for Acts 25 :8

Clarke's Commentary on Acts 25 :8

While he answered for himself - In this instance St. Luke gives only a general account, both of the accusations and of St. Paul's defense. But, from the words in this verse, the charges appear to have been threefold:

1. That he had broken the law.

2. That he had defiled the temple.

3. That he dealt in treasonable practices: to all of which he no doubt answered particularly; though we have nothing farther here than this, Neither against the law of the Jews, neither against the temple, nor yet against Caesar, have I offended any thing at all.

Barnes's Commentary on Acts 25 :8

While he answered ... - See this answer more at length in Acts 24:10-21. As the accusations against him were the same now as then, he made to them the same reply.

Wesley's Commentary on Acts 25 :8

25:8 While he answered - To a general charge a general answer was sufficient.
