2 And finding a ship sailing over unto Phenicia, we went aboard, and set forth.
2 We found a ship crossing over to Phoenicia, went on board and set sail.
2 And having found a ship crossing to Phoenicia, we went aboard and set sail.
2 There we found a ship going direct to Phoenicia, got on board, and set sail.
2 And finding a ship sailing over to Phoenicia, we went aboard and set sail.
2 There we boarded a ship sailing for Phoenicia.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Acts 21:2
Commentary on Acts 21:1-7
(Read Acts 21:1-7)
Providence must be acknowledged when our affairs go on well. Wherever Paul came, he inquired what disciples were there, and found them out. Foreseeing his troubles, from love to him, and concern for the church, they wrongly thought it would be most for the glory of God that he should continue at liberty; but their earnestness to dissuade him from it, renders his pious resolution the more illustrious. He has taught us by example, as well as by rule, to pray always, to pray without ceasing. Their last farewell was sweetened with prayer.
