Identified With Jesus

Acts 21:33-36

The commander came up and arrested him and ordered him to be bound with two chains. Then he asked who he was and what he had done. Some in the crowd shouted one thing and some another, and since the commander could not get at the truth because of the uproar, he ordered that Paul be taken into the barracks. When Paul reached the steps, the violence of the mob was so great he had to be carried by the soldiers. The crowd that followed kept shouting, 'Get rid of him!' (NIVUK)

Paul's life was possibly minutes away from extinction. The religious mob in Jerusalem were already beating the apostle, but he was saved by the arrival of a troop of soldiers with their commander (Acts 21:30-32). Public order had to be restored, and so Paul was arrested and put in chains. It was a demonstration that the Roman authorities were in control and not the angry crowd. Even so it was not an easy task for them.
