19 Also, many of those who had practiced magic brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. And they counted up the value of them, and it totaled fifty thousand pieces of silver.

20 ^aSo the word of the Lord grew mightily and prevailed.

The Riot at Ephesus

21 ^aWhen these things were accomplished, Paul ^bpurposed in the Spirit, when he had passed through ^cMacedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, “After I have been there, ^dI must also see Rome.”

22 So he sent into Macedonia two of those who ministered to him, ^aTimothy and ^bErastus, but he himself stayed in Asia for a time.

23 And ^aabout that time there arose a great commotion about ^bthe Way.

24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of¹ Diana, brought ^ano small profit to the craftsmen.

Acts 19:21 After these things were ended. What has just been recorded. Paul purposed in the spirit. Had determined, after a journey into Macedonia and Greece, to visit the churches planted in his former tour, to return to Jerusalem, and then to "see Rome" (see Romans 1:13). This was all carried out, but in a way that at this time he did not foresee.
