Paul’s arrival in Jerusalem in 57 C.E. does not go well.  The book of Acts tells of a mob who attacks Paul.  Then Paul’s nephew warns of a plot to kill Paul, and the commander orders two centurions with 400 Roman soldiers and 70 cavalry to escort Paul to Caesaria.  There, he will be under house arrest at the governor’s palace, but exercises his right as a Roman citizen to a hearing before the Emperor in Rome.  The governor declared, “You have appealed to Caesar.  To Caesar you will go!”  (Why does Paul think he will be safe in Rome?)  Join us, as Paul, Luke, and others board a ship and set out on their journey.
