Compare all
21 atestifying to Jews, and also to Greeks, brepentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.  
22 And see, now aI go bound in the spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that will happen to me there,  
23 except that athe Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that chains and tribulations await me.  
24 But anone of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, bso that I may finish my race with joy, cand the ministry dwhich I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.  
25 “And indeed, now I know that you all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, will see my face no more.
26 Therefore I testify to you this day that I am ainnocent of the blood of all men.

Acts 20:23

Save that (plhn oti). The oti clause is really in the ablative case after plhn, here a preposition as in Philippians 1:18, this idiom plhn oti occasionally in ancient Greek.

In every city (kata polin). Singular here though plural in kat oikouv (verse Acts 20:20).

Bonds and afflictions (desma kai qliyeiv). Both together as in Philippians 1:17; II Corinthians 1:8. Literal bonds and actual pressures.

Abide me (me menousin). With the accusative as in verse Acts 20:5 (emenon hmav) and nowhere else in the N.T.
