Gill's Notes on the Bible

And after the uproar was ceased,.... Which Demetrius, and the craftsmen, had raised at Ephesus, and which was put an end to by the speech of the town clerk, or register keeper of the theatre:

Paul called unto him the disciples; the members of the church at Ephesus, whom he convened, either at his own lodgings, or at their usual place of meeting:

and embraced them; or "saluted them"; that is, with a kiss, which was sometimes done at parting, as well as at meeting; see Acts 20:37 and so the Syriac version renders it, and "kissed" them, and so took his leave of them, and bid them farewell; the Alexandrian copy, and some other copies, and the Syriac and Vulgate Latin versions before this clause insert, "and exhorted, or comforted" them; that is, exhorted them to continue steadfast in the faith, and hold fast the profession of it without wavering, and comforted them under all their tribulations, and in a view of what afflictions and persecutions they must expect to endure for the sake of Christ, with the exceeding great and precious promises of the Gospel:

and departed to go into Macedonia; to visit the churches at Philippi, Thessalonica, and Berea, and to establish them in the faith of the Gospel: he did not choose to leave Ephesus till the tumult was over, partly on his own account, that he might not bring upon himself an imputation of fear and cowardice; and partly on the account of the church at Ephesus, that he might not leave them in distress, and add to it; but now it was over, he judged it proper to take his leave of them, and visit other churches, the care of which equally lay upon him.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The uproar - The tumult excited, by Demetrius and the workmen. After it had been quieted by the town-clerk, Acts 19:40-41.

Embraced them - Saluted them; gave them parting expressions of kindness. Compare the Luke 7:45 note; Romans 16:16 note; 1 Corinthians 16:20 note; 2 Corinthians 13:12 note; 1 Thessalonians 5:26 note; 1 Peter 5:14 note. The Syriac translates this, “Paul caned the disciples, and consoled them, and kissed them.”

To go into Macedonia - On his way to Jerusalem, agreeably to his purpose, as recorded in Acts 19:21.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XX.

Paul retires to Macedonia, 1.

He goes into Greece, where he tarries three months and,

purposing to sail to Syria, he returns through Macedonia, 2, 3.

Several persons accompany him into Asia, and then go before and

tarry for him at Troas, 4, 5.

Paul and Luke sail from Philippi, and in five days reach Troas,

where they meet their brethren from Asia, and abide there seven

days, 6.

On the first day of the week, the disciples coming together to

break bread, Paul preaching to them, and continuing his speech

till midnight, a young man of the name of Eutychus, being in a

deep sleep, fell from the third loft and was killed, 7-9.

Paul restores him to life, resumes his discourse, and

continuing it till daybreak, then departs, 10-12.

Luke and his companions come to Assos, whither Paul comes by

land, 13.

He embarks with them at Assos, comes to Mitylene, 14.

Sails thence, and passes by Chios, arrives at Samos, tarries

at Trogyllium, and comes to Miletus, 15.

Purposing to get as soon as possible to Jerusalem, he sends

from Miletus, and calls the elders of the Church of Ephesus,

to whom he preaches a most directing sermon, gives them the

most solemn exhortations, kneels down and prays with them,

takes a very affecting leave of them, and sets sail for

Caesarea, in order to go to Jerusalem, 16-38.

NOTES ON CHAP. XX.

Verse Acts 20:1. After the uproar was ceased — The tumult excited by Demetrius apparently induced Paul to leave Ephesus sooner than he had intended. He had written to the Corinthians that he should leave that place after pentecost, 1 Corinthians 16:8; but it is very probable that he left it sooner.
