he_o do_v address_v himself_o to_o jerusalem_n not_o come_v at_o ephesus_n but_o sail_v by_o it_o as_o we_o see_v act_n 20.17_o 20.17_o act._n 20.17_o he_o purpose_v to_o sail_v into_o asia_n but_o not_o to_o come_v at_o ephesus_n but_o to_o sail_v by_o it_o and_o when_o he_o come_v to_o miletus_n which_o be_v about_o three_o or_o four_o league_n from_o ephesus_n he_o stay_v there_o because_o it_o be_v a_o place_n that_o be_v more_o private_a and_o because_o the_o jew_n can_v not_o so_o soon_o have_v intelligence_n that_o he_o be_v there_o from_o thence_o he_o send_v a_o boat_n to_o ephesus_n to_o entreat_v the_o elder_n and_o seniors_n to_o come_v thither_o to_o he_o and_o in_o act_n 20._o we_o read_v of_o his_o converse_v with_o they_o they_o take_v the_o communion_n together_o and_o he_o give_v they_o notice_n and_o knowledge_n that_o there_o be_v wolf_n creep_v into_o the_o church_n of_o god_n and_o he_o tell_v they_o also_o what_o their_o duty_n be_v to_o watch_v as_o

so_o this_o be_v the_o last_o journey_n that_o ever_o s._n paul_n have_v in_o the_o world_n for_o go_v from_o philippi_n he_o sail_v by_o ephesus_n he_o come_v not_o at_o it_o and_o from_o ephesus_n that_o be_v from_o the_o part_n about_o ephesus_n he_o go_v along_o to_o tyre_n and_o from_o thence_o he_o come_v to_o caesarea_n and_o from_o caesarea_n to_o jerusalem_n and_o when_o he_o come_v thither_o he_o enter_v into_o a_o vow_n according_a to_o the_o direction_n of_o the_o apostle_n s_o james_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o elder_n at_o jerusalem_n and_o then_o the_o jew_n set_v upon_o

save_v his_o life_n from_o the_o cruelty_n of_o the_o jew_n and_o gain_v many_o people_n in_o rome_n and_o in_o caesar_n house_n to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o christ_n so_o that_o s._n paul_n be_v henceforth_o a_o prisoner_n but_o the_o word_n god_n be_v not_o bind_v but_o that_o run_v swift_o and_o win_v many_o to_o the_o credit_n and_o faith_n of_o the_o gospel_n howbeit_o he_o be_v in_o

of_o that_o point_n i_o will_v stay_v at_o ephesus_n that_o be_v if_o god_n give_v i_o that_o i_o have_v purpose_v that_o it_o may_v be_v effect_v that_o i_o shall_v get_v to_o ephesus_n and_o have_v liberty_n and_o scope_n peaceable_o to_o be_v there_o i_o will_v stay_v there_o till_o i_o can_v get_v a_o convenient_a opportunity_n to_o go_v to_o jerusalem_n to_o be_v there_o about_o pentecost_n but_o because_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n he_o hear_v of_o another_o thing_n that_o the_o jew_n have_v lay_v wait_n for_o he_o that_o they_o have_v beset_v the_o creek_n and_o port_n about_o corinth_n and_o other_o part_n of_o greece_n and_o that_o they_o have_v enter_v into_o ephesus_n and_o into_o divers_a strong_a part_n of_o asia_n where_o they_o think_v that_o s._n paul_n will_v go_v by_o land_n therefore_o the_o apostle_n take_v that_o mean_n that_o god_n have_v set_v apart_o and_o defeat_v they_o and_o come_v not_o at_o ephesus_n but_o go_v away_o by_o sea_n and_o come_v safe_a to_o jerusalem_n where_o he_o offer_v up_o his_o last_o service_n to_o god_n i_o mean_v the_o service_n to_o the_o saint_n which_o be_v the_o gift_n and_o contribution_n which_o the_o church_n of_o corinth_n send_v and_o he_o stand_v a_o true_a professor_n of_o the_o faith_n before_o felix_n and_o before_o festus_n and_o before_o the_o precedent_n and_o before_o bernice_n and_o before_o herod_n and_o after_o that_o he_o be_v cast_v in_o prison_n he_o be_v take_v prisoner_n and_o send_v by_o a_o captain_n to_o rome_n to_o the_o emperor_n now_o for_o the_o place_n where_o he_o say_v he_o will_v abide_v we_o be_v a_o little_a to_o take_v notice_n of_o that_o i_o will_v stay_v at_o ephesus_n this_o ephesus_n which_o at_o this_o day_n be_v call_v fesome_a what_o ephesus_z what_o a_o city_n in_o turkey_n in_o euonia_n in_o the_o lesser_a asia_n which_o be_v water_v with_o the_o river_n catristell_n it_o be_v a_o famous_a and_o noble_a place_n in_o respect_n of_o the_o great_a

in_o sum_n this_o ephesus_n be_v a_o place_n where_o the_o devil_n have_v set_v his_o throne_n by_o magic_n and_o by_o all_o kind_n of_o licentiousness_n and_o looseness_n by_o most_o abominable_a

this_o which_o the_o apostle_n paul_n have_v a_o purpose_n to_o abide_v in_o for_o indeed_o as_o chrysostome_n chrysost_n chrysost_n well_o observe_v there_o be_v no_o such_o foot_n for_o christ_n as_o where_o the_o devil_n have_v make_v his_o stay_n before_o for_o when_o the_o strong_a man_n keep_v the_o house_n all_o thing_n be_v in_o quiet_a the_o devil_n be_v compare_v to_o the_o strong_a

all_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n to_o settle_v themselves_o where_o the_o devil_n be_v most_o rampant_a and_o rage_a and_o not_o to_o fear_v danger_n not_o to_o fear_v his_o cleave_a foot_n but_o to_o settle_v themselves_o in_o his_o habitation_n that_o the_o strong_a man_n may_v cast_v out_o the_o strong_a man_n for_o as_o christ_n say_v when_o the_o strong_a man_n possess_v the_o
