Strong's Number G5347 matches the Greek Φῆστος (phēstos),
which occurs 13 times in 13 verses
in the MGNT Greek.
After two years had passed, Porcius Festus succeeded Felix, and because Felix wanted to do the Jews a favor, he left Paul in prison.
Three days after Festus arrived in the province, he went up to Jerusalem from Caesarea.
Festus, however, answered that Paul should be kept at Caesarea, and that he himself was about to go there shortly.
But Festus, wanting to do the Jews a favor, replied to Paul, “Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem to be tried before me there on these charges? ”
Then after Festus conferred with his council, he replied, “You have appealed to Caesar; to Caesar you will go.”
Several days later, King Agrippa and Bernice arrived in Caesarea and paid a courtesy call on Festus.
Since they were staying there several days, Festus presented Paul’s case to the king, saying, “There’s a man who was left as a prisoner by Felix.
Agrippa said to Festus, “I would like to hear the man myself.”
“Tomorrow you will hear him,” he replied.
So the next day, Agrippa and Bernice came with great pomp and entered the auditorium with the military commanders and prominent men of the city. When Festus gave the command, Paul was brought in.
Then Festus said, “King Agrippa and all men present with us, you see this man. The whole Jewish community has appealed to me concerning him, both in Jerusalem and here, shouting that he should not live any longer.
As he was saying these things in his defense, Festus exclaimed in a loud voice, “You’re out of your mind, Paul! Too much study is driving you mad.”
But Paul replied, “I’m not out of my mind, most excellent Festus. On the contrary, I’m speaking words of truth and good judgment.
