He hoped also that money should have been given him of Paul, that he might loose him: wherefore he sent for him the oftener, and communed with him.
Note 7 at Acts 24:26: Felix knew that many thousands of people loved and respected Paul. Therefore, Felix hoped that they would try to obtain Paul's release through a bribe.
