Paul in Macedonia and Greece
1After the uproar ceased, Paul sent for the disciples, and after encouraging them, he said farewell and #See ch. 19:21departed for Macedonia. 2When he had gone through those regions and had given them much encouragement, he came to Greece. 3There he spent three months, and when #ver. 19; [ch. 13:50]; See ch. 9:24a plot was made against him by the Jews#20:3 Greek Ioudaioi probably refers here to Jewish religious leaders, and others under their influence, in that time; also verse 19 as he was about to set sail for Syria, he decided to return through Macedonia. 4Sopater the Berean, son of Pyrrhus, accompanied him; and of the Thessalonians, #ch. 14:6, 21; See ch. 19:29 Aristarchus and Secundus; and #ch. 14:6, 21; See ch. 19:29 Gaius of Derbe, and #See ch. 16:1 Timothy; and the Asians, #Eph. 6:21; Col. 4:7; 2 Tim. 4:12; Titus 3:12 Tychicus and #ch. 21:29; 2 Tim. 4:20Trophimus. 5These went on ahead and were waiting for #ver. 6-8, 13-15 us at #ch. 16:8-11Troas, 6but we sailed away from Philippi after #ch. 12:3; Ex. 12:14, 15; 23:15the days of Unleavened Bread, and in five days we came to them at Troas, where we stayed for seven days.

1 Cor. 16:2; [
Mark 16:9; John 20:19; Rev. 1:10 ] On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together #ver. 11; 1 Cor. 10:16; 11:23, 24; See ch. 2:42to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day, and he prolonged his speech until midnight. 8There were many lamps in #ch. 1:13; 9:37, 39the upper room where we were gathered. 9And a young man named Eutychus, sitting at the window, sank into a deep sleep as Paul talked still longer. And being overcome by sleep, he #2 Kgs. 1:2fell down from the third story and was taken up dead. 10But Paul went down and #[1 Kgs. 17:21; 2 Kgs. 4:34] bent over him, and taking him in his arms, said, #[Matt. 9:23, 24; Mark 5:39]“Do not be alarmed, for his life is in him.” 11And when Paul had gone up and #ver. 7had broken bread and eaten, he conversed with them a long while, until daybreak, and so departed. 12And they took the youth away alive, and were not a little comforted.
13But going ahead to the ship, we set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there, for so he had arranged, intending himself to go by land. 14And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and went to Mitylene. 15And sailing from there we came the following day opposite Chios; the next day we touched at Samos; and#20:15 Some manuscripts add after remaining at Trogyllium the day after that we went to Miletus. 16For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, so that he might not have to spend time in Asia, for he was hastening #ver. 22; ch. 24:11; [ver. 6; ch. 19:21; 1 Cor. 16:8] to be at Jerusalem, if possible, #ch. 2:1on the day of Pentecost.
Paul Speaks to the Ephesian Elders
17Now from Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called #See ch. 11:30the elders of the church to come to him. 18And when they came to him, he said to them:
#
