St. Paul was likely in his late fifties to early sixties when he appeared before King Agrippa, which is estimated to be around A.D. 60-62. He was converted to Christianity approximately 30 years earlier, and given the timeline of his life and ministry, this age estimate aligns with historical accounts. However, the exact age is not definitively recorded in the scriptures.
Herod Agrippa.Acts 26:27, 28 - "King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know that you do believe." Then Agrippa said to Paul, "You almost persuade me to become a Christian." [NKJV]
Yes. And in doing so almost converted Agrippa to Christianity (Acts 26:28).
The account of Paul testifying before the mob in Jerusalem and the Sanhedrin (Jewish council of elders including Ananias, the high priest), is found in Acts chapters 21-23. His testimony before Felix is in chapter 24, and he testifies before Festus and King Agrippa in Acts 26. (His testimony repeats itself at times because of the way his audience keeps changing.)
A companion to and probably in an incestuous relationship to Herod Agrippa II (Acts 25:13); daughter of Herod Agrippa I, born probably around A.D. 28; married first to a person named Marcus, then to her own uncle Herod. Two sons were born from the latter union before Bernice was widowed in A.D. 48. Later she married Polemo, king of Cilicia. The Roman historian Tacitus says she was mistress of the Roman Emperor Titus.
To correctly answer the question are you talking about King Saul or Saul later named Paul?
Paul had contact with several Roman officials during his missionary journeys and subsequent trials. Notably, he encountered Felix, the governor of Judea, and later Festus, who succeeded Felix. Additionally, Paul had an audience with King Agrippa II, who was also involved in his trial. These interactions illustrate Paul's engagement with the Roman legal system as he spread his message.
Paul had in fact appealed to Caesar. The statement in the question actually includes the word 'not'. 32Then said Agrippa unto Festus, This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed unto Caesar. What Agrippa meant was that Paul was actually innocent of any crime. However, since he had appealed to Caesar, he thus had to go to Caesar to have his case heard and could not be released until this process was gone through. It was Paul's appeal which thus caused him to remain a prisoner, together of course with the Roman custom regarding appeals to Caesar.
Act 26:28 And Agrippa said to Paul, "In a short time would you persuade me to be a Christian?"

The other sister of Herod who heard Paul preach was Bernice. She was the sister of Herod Agrippa II, and she was present at the hearing where Paul defended himself.
Paul appeared before Emperor Nero during his trial. This encounter occurred after Paul was arrested in Jerusalem and subsequently transported to Rome for his hearing. Nero reigned from 54 to 68 AD, and Paul's appeal to Caesar was part of his defense against the charges brought against him by the Jewish leaders.
Paul King - cricketer - was born in 1979.
