ἀκρο-ᾱτήριον G0201
A formal hall or room where official hearings and audiences are conducted
This noun refers to an official chamber designed for formal hearings, appearing in Acts 25:23 when Festus and Agrippa enter with great pomp. The Greek term literally means 'place of hearing' and was used for lecture rooms or audience halls. The consistency across languages (Spanish 'sala-de-audiencias', French 'auditoire') confirms this was a formal space where important public proceedings occurred, fitting the dramatic scene of Paul's hearing before royalty.
