Acts 18:20
when they desired him to tarry—The Jews seldom rose against the Gospel till the successful preaching of it stirred them up, and there was no time for that here.
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.
