Acts 21:15 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 21:15

And after those days we took up our carriages
Or prepared themselves, both for their journey, and for whatever trials and exercises they were to meet with; they took up their bundles, which hitherto were brought by sea, and now put them upon beasts, going by land from Caesarea:

and went up to Jerusalem;
which stood on higher ground, and was, as Josephus F14 says, six hundred furlongs, or seventy five miles distant.

13 tunc respondit Paulus et dixit quid facitis flentes et adfligentes cor meum ego enim non solum alligari sed et mori in Hierusalem paratus sum propter nomen Domini Iesu
14 et cum ei suadere non possemus quievimus dicentes Domini voluntas fiat
15 post dies autem istos praeparati ascendebamus Hierusalem
16 venerunt autem et ex discipulis a Caesarea nobiscum adducentes apud quem hospitaremur Mnasonem quendam Cyprium antiquum discipulum
