Luke
Acts 25:25ESV·traditional attribution
But I found that he had done nothing deserving death. And as he himself appealed to the emperor, I decided to go ahead and send him.
Matthew Henry Presbyterian
Kings usually think sending ambassadors enough, but here Agrippa came himself, personal converse is the sweetest among friends. He visits Festus not to judge Paul but to gratify his curiosity, fulfilling Christ's promise that His followers should be brought before governors and kings for a testimony.
