Trial
(See JUDGES; COUNCIL; LAW; PILATE.) In Act 19:38, margin, “the court days are now being kept,” i.e. the court is now sitting, “and there are deputies.” The assembly of citizens then sitting formed the conventus, out of which the “deputy” or proconsul (anthupatos) selected “judices” or assessors (anthupatoi); thus the court consisted of the proconsul and his assessors.
