PaulPhilipCaesarea

6 And after we had said our farewells, we went aboard the ship, and they returned home.

7 When we had finished our voyage from Tyre, we landed at Ptolemais, where we greeted the brothers and stayed with them for a day.

Leaving the next day, we went on to Caesarea and stayed at the home of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the Seven.

9 He had four unmarried daughters who prophesied.

10 After we had been there several days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.
