16 And he drove them from the judgment seat.
17 Then1 all the Greeks took aSosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. But Gallio took no notice of these things.
Paul Returns to Antioch
18 So Paul still remained1 a good while. Then he took leave of the brethren and sailed for Syria, and Priscilla and Aquila were with him. aHe had his hair cut off at bCenchrea, for he had taken a vow.
19 And he came to Ephesus, and left them there; but he himself entered the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.
20 When they asked him to stay a longer time with them, he did not consent,
21 but took leave of them, saying, a“I must by all means keep this coming feast in Jerusalem; but I will return again to you, bGod willing.” And he sailed from Ephesus.
22 And when he had landed at aCaesarea, and gone up and greeted the church, he went down to Antioch.
23 After he had spent some time there, he departed and went over the region of aGalatia and Phrygia in order, bstrengthening all the disciples.
Ministry of Apollos
24 aNow a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man and mighty in the Scriptures, came to Ephesus.
25 This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being afervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things of the Lord, bthough he knew only the baptism of John.
