Gevurot 21:10 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 21:10

And as we tarried there many days
How many days is not said, it could not be very many, if the apostle got to Jerusalem by Pentecost, as he desired, ( Acts 20:6 Acts 20:15 Acts 20:16 ) ( Acts 21:4 Acts 21:7 )

there came down from Judea a certain prophet named Agabus;
of whom mention is made in ( Acts 11:28 ) who is there said to come from Jerusalem, to Antioch, and here from Judea to Caesarea; he had been many years going about from place to place prophesying, for between that and this account must be a space of about sixteen or seventeen years.

Gevurot 21:10 In-Context

8 And on the next day, having left, we came to Caesarea; and entered the bais of Philippos, the maggid of the Besuras HaGeulah who was one of HaShivah [see 6:3]. And we stayed with him.
9 And Philippos was the abba of arbah banot, betulot, who were gifted in giving a dvar nevuah. [Ex 15:20; Judg 4:4; Neh 6:14]
10 And remaining there many yamim, a certain one came down from Yehudah, a navi, Agav by name.
11 And when he came to us, he took Rav Sha’ul’s gartel and, having bound his own feet and hands with it, Agav said, "So says the Ruach Hakodesh: this is the way the Yehudim in Yerushalayim will bind the man who owns this gartel, and they will hand him over to the Goyim.” [MELACHIM ALEF 22:11; Isa 20:2- 4; Jer 13:1-11]
12 And when we heard these things, we were begging Rav Sha’ul, both we and the locals, not to make any aliyah (ascent) to Yerushalayim.
