Context — In Pisidian Antioch

11Now look, the hand of the Lord is against you, and for a time you will be blind and unable to see the light of the sun.” Immediately mist and darkness came over him, and he groped about, seeking someone to lead him by the hand. 12When the proconsul saw what had happened, he believed, for he was astonished at the teaching about the Lord.

13After setting sail from Paphos, Paul and his companions came to Perga in Pamphylia, where John left them to return to Jerusalem.

14And from Perga, they traveled inland to Pisidian Antioch, where they entered the synagogue on the Sabbath and sat down. 15After the reading from the Law and the Prophets, the synagogue leaders sent word to them: “Brothers, if you have a word of encouragement for the people, please speak.”

Acts 13:13 Summary

Acts 13:13 tells us that Paul and his companions sailed from Paphos and arrived in Perga, where John left them to return to Jerusalem. This verse shows us that even in ministry, people may come and go, but God's work continues. As we trust in God's sovereignty, like Paul did, we can be faithful in spreading the gospel to those around us, as instructed in Matthew 28:19-20. By being sensitive to the Holy Spirit's leading, we can follow God's will, even when circumstances seem uncertain, and trust that He is working all things together for our good, as seen in Romans 8:28.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did Paul and his companions set sail from Paphos?

Paul and his companions set sail from Paphos to continue their missionary journey, as seen in Acts 13:13, likely guided by the Holy Spirit, similar to how the Spirit led them in Acts 13:2-4.

Who was John that left them to return to Jerusalem?

John, also known as John Mark, was a helper who accompanied Paul and Barnabas on their missionary journey, as mentioned in Acts 12:25, but he left them in Perga to return to Jerusalem, possibly due to the challenges of the journey.

What can we learn from John leaving Paul and his companions?

John's decision to leave Paul and his companions teaches us that even in ministry, people may come and go, but God's work continues, as seen in Acts 13:13, and we should trust in God's sovereignty, as expressed in Romans 8:28.

Why is Perga in Pamphylia significant in this verse?

Perga in Pamphylia is significant because it marked a point of transition for Paul and his companions, as they traveled inland to Pisidian Antioch, where they would preach the gospel, as seen in Acts 13:14, and it shows their commitment to spreading the gospel to new regions, as instructed in Matthew 28:19-20.

Reflection Questions

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Acts 13:13

Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Acts 13:13

Perga, a city in Pamphylia: not that there were any other cities of that name; but because this region was more commonly known, it being a country in the Lesser Asia, bordering on Cilicia. The departure of John was blameworthy, as . Some think he shunned that labour and suffering which he saw attended the gospel; others suppose that he returned to Jerusalem out of too fond an affection for his mother, who lived there; and it may be that he, retaining a great aversion from the Gentiles, might abhor to go amongst them: however, let him that standeth take heed lest he fall.

Trapp's Commentary on Acts 13:13

13 Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem. Ver. 13. John departing from] Being weary of the work, he showed them a slippery trick. Many will do something for God that will suffer little or nothing for him. The king of Navarre told Beza he would launch no further into the sea than he would be sure to return safe to the haven. Though he showed some countenance to religion, yet he would be sure to save himself. Pelago non ita commissurus esset, quin quando liberet, pedem referre posset.

Ellicott's Commentary on Acts 13:13

(13) Paul and his company.—Literally, those about Paul. The new description is obviously chosen as indicating the new position which from this time the Apostle began to occupy as the leader of the mission. Perga.—The city was at this time the capital of Pamphylia, situated on the river Cestrus, about seven miles from its mouth. The absence of any record of evangelising work there is probably due to the fact that there were no synagogues, and that the Apostles in this mission adhered to the plan of preaching in the first instance to the Jews, and making the synagogue, as it were, their base of operations. John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.—We are left to conjecture the motives of this departure. He may have shrunk from the perils and hardships of the journey into the interior of the country. He may have been drawn by affection for his mother, who lived at Jerusalem. It is clear, in any case, from St. Paul’s subsequent conduct (Acts 15:38), that he looked on the reason as insufficient, while Barnabas saw, at least, enough to admit the plea of extenuating circumstances. The pressure of the famine at Jerusalem may have seemed to him to excuse the desire of the son to minister to the mother’s wants.

Adam Clarke's Commentary on Acts 13:13

Verse 13. Paul and his company loosed from Paphos] They sailed away from this island, leaving, it may be presumed, Elymas a sincere and deeply humbled penitent; and Sergius Paul, a thorough and happy believer in the doctrine of Christ. Previously to this time, St. Luke always mentions Barnabas before Paul; but after this he mentions Paul always first; probably after seeing how God had distinguished him in the late proceedings at Cyprus; as much of the Holy Spirit now rested upon him. They came to Perga in Pamphylia] As Perga was not a maritime town, it is conjectured that the apostles sailed up the river Cestrus, in order to come to this place, which, according to Strabo, was situated about sixty leagues up this river, and near to which was a famous temple dedicated to Diana. For Pamphylia, see Acts 2:10. And John departing from them] Why John Mark left his brethren at this place we are not informed; probably he went to visit his pious mother Mary at Jerusalem, and to see Peter, to whom he is supposed to have been much attached. It certainly was not with the approbation of Paul that he left them at this place, as we learn from Acts 15:38; yet his departure does not seem to have merited the displeasure of Barnabas; for John Mark having met these apostles at Antioch, when Paul purposed to revisit the various places where they had planted the word of God, Barnabas was willing to take him with them; but Paul would not consent, because he had departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work, Acts 15:35-39, and this occasioned a separation between Barnabas and Paul. It does not appear that John Mark was under any obligation to accompany them any longer or any farther than he pleased. He seems to have been little else than their servant, and certainly was not divinely appointed to this work, as they were; and consequently might leave them innocently, though not kindly, if they could not readily supply his place. In this respect John Mark might be to blame; but Barnabas, whose nephew he was, could look over this fault more easily than Paul, who could not find those motives to pass by what was reprehensible in his conduct which natural affection might furnish to his brother apostle.

Cambridge Bible on Acts 13:13

13–15. The Apostles visit Pamphylia and Pisidia. Mark returns to Jerusalem13. Now when Paul and his company] Literally, “those around Paul.” Henceforth the Apostle of the Gentiles becomes the central figure in nearly every scene of the Acts.loosed [sailed] from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia] They would sail to the north-west. Pamphylia was about the middle part of the southern seaboard of Asia Minor, and Perga was its capital. We are not told of any missionary labours in Perga at this time either because there was no opening for their commencement, or it may be that the Apostles were troubled at the departure of Mark. They did preach in Perga on their return visit (Acts 14:25).and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem] There is no reason given for his departure either here or elsewhere, but the cause assigned had clearly not been one which satisfied St Paul (Acts 15:38). John Mark, most probably the same person as the writer of the second Gospel, afterwards was an earnest labourer for Christ, and St Paul (Colossians 4:10) speaks of him with affection. If St Luke knew the cause of his present withdrawal, the remembrance of his subsequent zeal sealed his lips on the subject. Cp. Acts 10:48, note.
