Context — Paul Returns to Antioch

17At this, the crowd seized Sosthenes the synagogue leader and beat him in front of the judgment seat. But none of this was of concern to Gallio. 18Paul remained in Corinth for quite some time before saying goodbye to the brothers. He had his head shaved in Cenchrea to keep a vow he had made, and then he sailed for Syria, accompanied by Priscilla and Aquila.

19When they reached Ephesus, Paul left Priscilla and Aquila. He himself went into the synagogue there and reasoned with the Jews.

20When they asked him to stay for a while longer, he declined. 21But as he left, he said, “I will come back to you if God is willing.” And he set sail from Ephesus.

Acts 18:19 Summary

In this verse, Paul says goodbye to his friends Priscilla and Aquila and goes into the synagogue in Ephesus to share the gospel with the Jews. He uses Scripture and logical argument to explain the gospel, as Jesus taught in Luke 24:27. This shows that Paul was committed to preaching the gospel to everyone, no matter what, just like Jesus commanded in Matthew 28:19-20. By sharing the gospel with others, we can follow Paul's example and be faithful to God's call on our lives, as seen in 1 Corinthians 9:23.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did Paul part ways with Priscilla and Aquila in Ephesus?

The Bible does not give a specific reason, but it is likely that Paul wanted to minister to the Jews in the synagogue alone, as he often did in his missionary journeys, as seen in Acts 17:1-3 and Acts 19:8.

What does it mean that Paul 'reasoned with the Jews' in the synagogue?

This means that Paul used Scripture and logical argument to explain the gospel to the Jews, as he did in Acts 17:2-3, and as Jesus taught in Luke 24:27 and Luke 24:32.

Was Paul's decision to go into the synagogue in Ephesus a bold move?

Yes, considering the opposition he faced in other synagogues, such as in Acts 13:45 and Acts 14:2, but Paul was compelled by his love for the Jews and his desire to share the gospel with them, as seen in Romans 9:1-3.

How does Paul's actions in this verse relate to his overall ministry?

Paul's actions in this verse demonstrate his commitment to preaching the gospel to both Jews and Gentiles, as seen in Acts 9:15 and Galatians 2:7-8, and his willingness to take risks to share the message of salvation.

Reflection Questions

What would it look like for me to 'reason' with others about the gospel, as Paul did in the synagogue?
How can I, like Paul, be bold in sharing the gospel with those who may oppose me?
What are some ways I can use Scripture to explain the gospel to others, as Paul did in his ministry?
How can I balance my desire to share the gospel with others with the need to be sensitive to their beliefs and traditions?

Gill's Exposition on Acts 18:19

And he came to Ephesus,.... The metropolis of Asia; according to Pliny (c), it had been called by many names; at the time of the Trojan war, Alopes, then Ortygia and Morges, also Smyrna Trachea,

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Acts 18:19

And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews. And he came to Ephesus - the celebrated capital of Ionia, and at this time of Proconsular Asia.

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Acts 18:19

Ephesus; the metropolis of the Lesser Asia, where afterwards that famous church was, unto which St. Paul wrote an Epistle, as also St. John wrote another, . Left them there; that is, Aquila and Priscilla at Ephesus, to confirm the believing Ephesians; whilst Paul entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews; out of an extraordinary love for his nation, although he had suffered all those indignities from them, yet he would give them precept upon precept, and line upon line.

Trapp's Commentary on Acts 18:19

19 And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews. Ver. 19. And reasoned with the Jews] Whose salvation he dearly desired, Romans 9:3, and therefore never gave them over, though he had small thanks for his labour. His love to them was like the ivy, which if it cleaves to a stone or an old wall, will rather die than forsake it.

Ellicott's Commentary on Acts 18:19

(19) He came to Ephesus, and left them there.—The better MSS. give, “They came to Ephesus.” What follows seems to imply that he no longer continued to work with them, as at Corinth, but leaving them to establish themselves in their craft, began, under the pressure of his eagerness to reach Jerusalem, an independent course of teaching in the synagogues. The first mention of Ephesus calls for a short account of its history. It had been one of the early Greek colonies on the western coast of Asia Minor. It fell under the power of Alyattes, King of Lydia, and his successor, Croesus. It had from the first been celebrated for the worship of Artemis (see Note on Acts 19:14); and her Temple, with its sacred image, and stately courts, and its hundreds of priests and priestesses of various grades, was visited by pilgrims of all nations. It was one of the cities in which East and West came into close contact with each other, and the religion of Greece assumed there a more Oriental character, and was fruitful in magic, and mysteries, and charms. The Jewish population was sufficiently numerous to have a synagogue, and St. Paul, as usual, appeared in it as a teacher.

Adam Clarke's Commentary on Acts 18:19

Verse 19. He came to Ephesus] Where it appears he spent but one Sabbath. It is supposed that Paul left Aquila and Priscilla at this place, and that he went on alone to Jerusalem; for it is certain they were at Ephesus when Apollos arrived there. See Acts 18:24; Acts 18:26. EPHESUS was at the time in which St. Paul visited it, one of the most flourishing cities of Asia Minor. It was situated in that part anciently called Ionia, but now Natolia. It abounded with the most eminent orators, philosophers, c., in the world and was adorned with the most splendid buildings. Here was that famous temple of Diana, reputed one of the seven wonders of the world. This city is now under the dominion of the Turks, and is in a state of almost entire ruin. The temple of Minerva, which had long served as a Christian church, is now so completely ruined that its site cannot be easily determined; though some ruins of the walls are still standing, with five or six marble columns, forty feet in length, and seven in diameter, all of one piece. It still has a good harbour, and is about forty miles from Smyrna. In Chandler's Travels in Asia Minor, some curious information is given concerning this once eminent city. His account concludes thus: "The Ephesians are now a few Greek peasants, living in extreme wretchedness, dependence, and insensibility: the representative of an illustrious people, and inhabiting the wrecks of their greatness: some beneath the vaults of the Stadium, once the crowded scene of their diversions; and some live by the abrupt precipice, in the sepulchres which received the ashes of their ancestors. Such are the present citizens of Ephesus; and such is the condition to which that renowned city has been gradually reduced. Its streets are obscured and overgrown; a herd of goats was driven to it for shelter from the sun at noon; and a noisy flight of crows from the quarries seemed to insult its silence. We heard the partridge call in the area of the theatre, and of the Stadium. The glorious pomp of its heathen worship is no longer remembered; and Christianity, which was there nursed by apostles, and fostered by general councils, until it increased to fulness of stature, barely lingers on, in an existence hardly visible." Travels in Asia Minor, p. 130. Reader! This city was once the capital of Asia Minor; and its ruins alone prove that it has existed: and it was one of those seven Churches to which a letter was expressly dictated by Jesus Christ himself! Ephesus is properly no more! and the Church of Ephesus is blotted put of the map of Christianity! Be silent and adore.

Cambridge Bible on Acts 18:19

19. And he [they] came to Ephesus] The oldest authorities have the plural number here. Ephesus was the famous city, capital of Ionia, and afterwards the scene of a large period of St John’s labours. It stood not far from the sea on some hilly ground by a small river which flows into the sea in the district lying between the greater rivers, the Hermus and the Meander. In St Paul’s day it was by far the busiest and most populous city in Proconsular Asia. For a more complete account of its inhabitants and the special worship of Artemis (Diana) for which it was celebrated, a fitting place will be found in the notes on chap. 19.and left them there] Aquila and Priscilla probably had business connexions with the large city of Ephesus, which caused them to end their journey here. These people though working at their trade appear to have been above the position which would be implied by Dr Farrar’s expression (St Paul i. 573) “his lodging in the squalid shop of Aquila and Priscilla.” They travelled about and lived now at Rome, now at Ephesus, and now in Corinth (1 Corinthians 16:19; Romans 16:3; 2 Timothy 4:19), and on their condition when in Ephesus, see above on Acts 18:2.entered into the synagogue] He could not give up his own people, though he was constantly exposed to hard usage by them; so he seeks them out again here as soon as he arrives. In Ephesus however his message seems to have been received with less hostility, for those who heard him begged him to stay a longer time. The cosmopolitan character of the Ephesian population may have had something to do with this.

Barnes' Notes on Acts 18:19

And he came to Ephesus - See the notes on Revelation 2:1-5. This was a celebrated city in Ionia, in Asia Minor, about 40 miles south of Smyrna.

Whedon's Commentary on Acts 18:19

19. Came to Ephesus—Between Corinth and Ephesus the sea route was a perpetual scene of navigation. It took usually from twelve to fifteen days, about the time of a modern steamboat trip across the Atlantic.
