    In Acts 25:7, the accusative plural neuter form occurs in the clause where those standing around him bring many serious charges. The APB renders the verse with accusations that “they were not able to prove,” confirming their character as unsubstantiated allegations in that scene.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Acts 25:7, the APB presents the clause as bringing many serious “accusations” that could not be proved. This rendering confirms the verse's overall presentation rather than isolating every feature of the Greek term.
