Acts 21:3 — Meaning and Application

And it came to pass, that after we were gotten from them, and had launched, we came with a straight course unto Coos, and the {day} following unto Rhodes, and from thence unto Patara:

And finding a ship sailing over unto Phenicia, we went aboard, and set forth.

Now when we had discovered Cyprus, we left it on the left hand, and sailed into Syria, and landed at Tyre: for there the ship was to unlade her burden.

And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days: who said to Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.

And when we had accomplished those days, we departed and went our way; and they all brought us on our way, with wives and children, till {we were} out of the city: and we kneeled down on the shore, and prayed.
