Acts 25:19 Context
17Therefore when they were come hither, without any delay, on the morrow I sate on the iudgement seate, and cōmanded the man to be brought forth. 18Against whom when the accusers stood vp, they brought none accusation of such things as I supposed: 19But had certaine questions against him of their owne superstition, and of one Iesus, which was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be aliue. 20And because I doubted of such maner of questions, I asked him whether he would goe to Hierusalem, and there be iudged of these matters. 21But when Paul had appealed to bee reserued vnto the hearing of Augustus, I commanded him to be kept, till I might send him to Cesar.

Wesley's Notes for Acts 25:19
25:19 But had certain questions - How coldly does he mention the things of the last importance! And about one Jesus - Thus does Festus speak of Him, to whom every knee shall bow! Whom Paul affirmed to be alive - And was this a doubtful question? But why, O Festus, didst thou doubt concerning it? Only because thou didst not search into the evidence of it. Otherwise that evidence might have opened to thee, till it had grown up into full conviction; and thy illustrious prisoner have led thee into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
