Paul was in chains (Acts 21:33). Arrested by the Roman soldiers, in order to quell a riot and establish their authority, Paul was carried above the heads of the crowd up the steps of the military barracks (Acts 21:35). But before they entered the building, and the heavy gates slammed shut behind them, Paul spoke respectfully to the commander asking permission to speak to him. The officer was surprised to hear the apostle speaking in educated Greek. He wrongly assumed that Paul was an Egyptian terrorist leader; such people certainly did not speak Greek.
