In context
2 I think myself happy, king Agrippa, because I shall answer for myself this day before thee, concerning all the things of which I am accused by the Jews:
3 Especially, [because I know] thee to be expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews: wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.
4 My manner of life from my youth, which was at the first among my own nation at Jerusalem, know all the Jews,
5 Who knew me from the beginning, (if they would testify) that after the strictest sect of our religion, I lived a Pharisee.
6 And now I stand, and am judged for the hope of the promise made by God to our fathers:
7 To which [promise] our twelve tribes, assiduously serving [God] day and night, hope to come. For which hope's sake, king Agrippa, I am accused by the Jews.
8 Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?
