"Some (Wayne Grudem for example) have suggested that Agabus was mistaken for the Jews did not literally bind Paul and hand him over to the Romans. Such a judgement demands too literal a fulfillment of prophetic words. In the Lukan perspective the prophecy is fulfilled for Paul used some of the words of Agabus in describing his own arrest".
