1Felix and Drusilla hear Paul
Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish, and heard Paul speak about faith in Christ Jesus; when Paul reasoned about righteousness, self-control and the judgment to come, Felix was terrified and sent him away. Hoping for money, Felix often talked with him, and when Festus succeeded him after two years, he left Paul in bonds.
