Contextual Overview

10 And the governor signed to Paulos to speak. And Paulos answered, and said, For many years I know that thou hast been the judge of this people, and on this account I joyfully make defence for myself; 11 while thou shouldst know that it hath not been more than twelve days since I went up to Urishlem to worship. 12 Neither found they me speaking with any man in the temple, neither have I gathered an assembly in their synagogue nor in the city; 13 nor is it in their power to demonstrate before thee any thing of what they accuse me. 14 Nevertheless, this do I confess, that in that very doctrine of which they speak, in it serve I the God of my fathers, believing in all that is written in the law and in the prophets, 15 and having hope in Aloha [fn] that which they also hope: that there shall be a resurrection from the house of the dead, of the just and of the evil. 16 Because of this also I labour to have a good conscience before Aloha and before men, continually. 17 But after many years I came to the sons of my people to bestow alms, and to present an oblation. 18 And these found me in the temple being purified, not with a concourse nor with tumult; but men Jihudoyee who had come from Asia raised a tumult; 19 (and) these it behoved to stand with me before thee, and to accuse of that whatever they have (against me).

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Neither can they prove the things whereof they now accuse me. As that he was a pestilent fellow, a mover of sedition, and a profaner of the temple these things they could not set forth in any clear light, and bring testimonies, or give demonstration of; they could not make them appear to be true, which it lay upon them to do, or otherwise in course he ought be acquitted: this was challenging and defying them to make good their assertions.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Neither can they prove the things ... - That is, that I am a mover of sedition, or a disturber of the peace of the people. This appeal he boldly makes; he challenges investigation; and as they did not offer to specify any acts of disorder or tumult excited by him, this charge falls of course.
