Exegesis
The proper name Phestos {Φῆστος | Phês-tos} follows in the expected nominative position, and the deponent verb apekrithe {ἀπεκρίθη | a-pe-KRÍ-thē} functions as the main verbal nucleus, presenting his judicial reply.
In context — Acts 25:4
But Festus answered that Paul was to be kept in Caesarea, and that he himself intended to depart there soon.
