Felix
The meaning of Felix is "Happy; prosperous" Felix became the procurator by the petition of his brother. Felix's cruelty, coupled with his accessibility to bribes (Acts 24:26), led to a great increase of crime in Judaea. The period of his rule was marked by internal feuds and disturbances, which he put down with severity. Paul the Apostle was arrested in Jerusalem and rescued from a plot against his life, the local Roman chiliarch Claudius Lysias transferred him to Caesarea, where he stood trial before Felix (Acts 24:1).
FESTUS
The meaning of Festus is "Festive; joyful" Festus was the successor of Felix as Roman procurator (governor) of Judea (Acts 24:27). After Festus arrived at Caesarea, he went to Jerusalem and met with the high priests and other Jewish leaders. They informed him of Paul being left in prison after Felix was removed, and wanted Paul brought from Caesarea to Jerusalem so he could be tried before the Jewish Sanhedrin. Their real intent however, was to have Paul killed along the way (Acts 25:3). But Festus refused. Paul was summoned before Festus, who asked Paul if he would be willing to go to Jerusalem. Paul knowing of the danger on that trip, used his right as a Roman citizen to appeal to Rome for trial (Acts 25:12)
FORTUNATUS
The meaning of Fortunatus is "Lucky; fortunate" Fortunatus was a disciple from Corinth, of Roman birth or origin, as his name indicates, who visited Paul at Ephesus, most probably with contributions; and returned, along with Stephanus and Achaicus, in charge of that apostle's first Epistle to the Corinthian Church (1 Corinthians 16:17).
