They were adept at presenting cases before Roman officials, which was crucial in a society where public speaking and persuasion were highly valued. Tertullus, being of Latin origin, suggests he was well-versed in Roman law and customs, making him a suitable advocate for the Jewish leaders who sought to prosecute Paul under Roman jurisdiction.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain origin<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>Tertullus, probably a Rom.<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Tertullus (2).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 5061: Τέρτυλλος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Τέρτυλλος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">Τερτύλλου</span>, <span class="greek2">ὁ</span>, <span class="accented">Tertullus,</span> a Roman orator: <a href="/interlinear/acts/24-1.htm">Acts 24:1</a>f.
