The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 21:1-17

Human affection and sacred service. God has so made us and so related us that we find ourselves closely and tenderly attached, one to another, in various bonds. It is impossible that these should not have great influence on our minds as the children and servants of God, great effect on our lives as co-workers with Christ. What is that effect? I. HUMAN AFFECTION WAS A LARGE CONTRIBUTION TO OFFER TO SACRED SERVICE . We find it inciting all the disciples, including... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 21:4-11

The Spirit in Paul, and the Spirit in others. The narrative given of the apostle's progress toward Jerusalem suggests some serious and difficult questions. We now consider one of them. Once and again it appears as if the Divine Spirit sent messages which should have stopped the apostle, and prevented his going on to the holy city; and St. Paul evidently resisted these attempted hindrances. Then was he right in so doing? If he was right, how can we explain his conduct? The circumstances may... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 21:7-14

Tyro to Caesarea: the will of God it, the heart of his servant. As the days went on, the pressure upon the heart of Paul increased. The house of Philip the evangelist the scene of the last great test of his preparation for the future. The four virgin daughters, and Agabus from Jerusalem, repeated the prophetic warnings; but no one said by the voice of the Spirit, "Go not." Human voices must sometimes be resisted. Weeping may break a heart, but it ought not to break a resolution formed in... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 21:9

Now this man for and the same man, A.V. Virgins . This certainly conveys the impression that they had dedicated their lives to the service of God ( 1 Corinthians 7:34-38 ). Which did prophesy . The question arises—Did they exercise their gift of prophecy in the Church or in private? The passage 1 Corinthians 11:5 seems to indicate that in the Church of Corinth women did pray and prophesy in the congregation, while, on the other hand, 1 Corinthians 14:34 , 1 Corinthians 14:35 ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 21:10

Many days ( ἡμέρας πλείους ) . In Acts 13:31 ἐπὶ ἡμέρας πλείους is applied to the forty days between the Resurrection and the Ascension. In Acts 18:20 πλείονα χρόνον is a longer time—longer, viz. than he had intended. In Acts 25:6 ἡμέρας πλείους ἢ δέκα is "more than ten days." Here, therefore, it is too strong an expression to say "many days." According to Lewin's calculation, he was only five days at Caesarea—from May 10 to May 15. Howson's "some days,"... read more

Acts 21:7-9. And when we had finished our course By sea; we came to Ptolemais A celebrated city to the south of Tyre, on the same coast of the Mediterranean sea, anciently called Accho. It was enlarged and beautified by the first of the Egyptian Ptolemies, from whence it took its new appellation. It was the scene of many celebrated actions in that series of mad expeditions which was called the holy war. The Turks, who are now masters of all that region, call it Acca, or Acra; and... read more

Acts 21:10-14. And as we tarried there many days There being many disciples in that city, the fruit, as appears, of the ministry and miracles of Philip; there came from Judea a prophet named Agabus Paul, and some part of his company, had become acquainted with this prophet some years before, at Antioch, where he foretold the famine which afterward happened in the days of Claudius Cesar, Acts 11:28. And when he was come unto us Several of the disciples of Cesarea and Paul’s friends being... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Acts 21:1-16

To Jerusalem with the offering (20:13-21:16)From Troas Paul went by land to Assos, where he rejoined the rest of the party and sailed to Miletus (13-16). Since Miletus was only about fifty kilometres from Ephesus, Paul took the opportunity to call the elders of the Ephesian church to come and meet him. He wanted to give them some final encouragement and pass on helpful warnings (17).Paul’s opponents in Asia had probably been trying to turn the Christians against him. Therefore, he reminded the... read more
