Atos 20:18 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 20:18

And when they were come to him
That is, when the elders or pastors of the church at Ephesus were come to the apostle at Miletus:

he said unto them, ye know, from the first day I came into Asia;
to Ephesus the chief city in it:

after what manner I have been with you at all seasons;
what was his conduct, conversation, and constant manner of life; which the apostle takes notice of, not to commend himself, or to obtain applause of men; but either in vindication of himself, against those that were ready to charge and censure him; or to recommend the doctrine which he taught; and chiefly for the imitation of these elders, he had sent for, and convened in this place; and he appeals to themselves, as eyewitnesses of what he was going to say.

Atos 20:18 In-Context

16 Porque Paulo havia determinado passar ao largo de Éfeso, para não se demorar na Ásia; pois se apressava para estar em Jerusalém no dia de Pentecostes, se lhe fosse possível.
17 De Mileto mandou a Éfeso chamar os anciãos da igreja.
18 E, tendo eles chegado, disse-lhes: Vós bem sabeis de que modo me tenho portado entre vós sempre, desde o primeiro dia em que entrei na Ásia,
19 servindo ao Senhor com toda a humildade, e com lágrimas e provações que pelas ciladas dos judeus me sobrevieram;
20 como não me esquivei de vos anunciar coisa alguma que útil seja, ensinando-vos publicamente e de casa em casa,
