SCRIPTURE

"and they, when they came to Caesarea and delivered the letter to the governor, presented Paul also before him." — Acts 23:33 (ASV)

And they (οιτινες). Which very ones, the cavalry, the horsemen of verse 31.

Delivered (αναδοντες). Second aorist active participle of αναδιδωμ, old verb to give up, to hand over, here only in the N.T.

Presented Paul also (παρεστησαν κα τον Παυλον). First aorist active (transitive, not second aorist intransitive) indicative of παριστημ, common verb to present or place beside. What would Paul's friends in Caesarea (Philip and his daughters) think of the prophecy of Agabus now so quickly come true.
