The Fathers on this verse

St John Chrysostom A Commentary on the Acts of the Apostles, Homily LIII on Acts xxvi. 30-32

Acts XXVI. 30-32 “And when he had thus spoken, the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them: and when they were gone aside, they talked between themselves, saying, This man doeth nothing worthy of death or of bonds. Then said Agrippa unto Festus, This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed unto Cæsar.”
