This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
38. ἐφοβήθησαν δέ, and they were afraid, because a Roman citizen had a right of appeal to the emperor, and outrage on such a man was visited with severe penalties.
Ῥωμαῖοί εἰσιν, they are Romans. The words are reported exactly as the messengers would utter them; ὅτι is no more than a mark of quotation.
