ἐπιτρέπεται, Burton, p. 9, on “the aoristic present”. Agrippa as a king and as a guest presides; and Paul addresses himself specially to him, cf. Acts 26:2; Acts 26:7; Acts 26:13; Acts 26:19; Acts 26:27; cf. Acts 28:16; 1 Corinthians 14:34, for the passive with infinitive, and for other instances of the word in the same sense as here Acts 21:39-40; Acts 27:3; the verb is similarly used in all of the Gospels (three times in Luke), and in 1Co 16:7, 1 Timothy 2:12; Hebrews 6:3. ἐκτείνας : not the same as in Acts 12:17; Acts 13:16; here not to ensure silence, but gestus est oratorius, cf. Acts 26:29. ἀπελογεῖτο, see above, Acts 24:10, although not formally on trial, the word shows that the Apostle was defending himself.
