21:10-11 What does Agabus mean by saying here that the Jews will deliver Paul into the hands of the Gentiles?

21:10-11 What does Agabus mean by saying here that the Jews will deliver Paul into the hands of the Gentiles?

This refers to Paul being imprisoned by the Romans and his eventual death at their hands (CP V26-36 and 28:16-20 with 2Ti 1:16-17; 2:9; 4:6-8).

While the Jews may not have delivered Paul literally into the hands of the Romans, Agabus' prophecy was nonetheless fulfilled in what they did do to him (CP Ac 21:37-40 with 22:22-24).

Tradition has it that Paul was executed by beheading at Rome in late AD 66 or early AD 67.
