Exegesis
The apodosis is the concise declaration ou paraitoumai to apothanein {οὐ παραιτοῦμαι τὸ ἀποθανεῖν | ou paraitoûmai tò apothaneîn}, where the article to substantivizes the infinitive apothanein, producing the idiomatic “I do not refuse to die.”
In context — Acts 25:11
If therefore I do wrong and have committed anything worthy of death , I do not refuse to die. But if there is nothing of the things these men accuse me of, no one is able to grant me to them. I appeal to Caesar.
