This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
25. καὶ λαλήσαντες ἐν Πέργῃ τὸν λόγον, and when they had spoken the word in Perga. Which, for some unstated reason, they appear not to have done as they passed through it before. See Act 13:13-14, note.
εἰς Ἀττάλειαν, to Attalia. A seaport of Pamphylia, at the mouth of the river Catarrhactes. For its history see Dictionary of the Bible. The Apostles had sailed, as they came from Paphos, directly to Perga, which they reached by coming some way up the river Cestrus. Now they go by land from Perga to the seacoast at Attalia, where there was more likelihood of finding a vessel in which they could sail into Syria.
