We sailed from Troas The phrase "We sailed from Troas" marks the beginning of a significant journey in the missionary work of Paul and his companions. Troas, an ancient city located on the northwest coast of Asia Minor, served as a critical port and gateway between Asia and Europe. The use of "we" indicates that the author, Luke, was present, suggesting an eyewitness account. The Greek word for "sailed" (ἀνήχθημεν) implies a deliberate and purposeful departure, highlighting the divine guidance in their mission. This journey signifies the spread of the Gospel beyond the familiar territories of Asia into new lands, fulfilling the Great Commission. straight for Samothrace and the following day on to Neapolis The next day to Neapolis.--The name (=new town) was naturally common wherever Greek was spoken. It survives in two conspicuous instances--in Naples, and in Nablous as the modern name of Sychem. The town now before us was in Thrace, about twelve miles from Philippi, which was the frontier town of Macedonia. It has been identified, on adequate grounds, with the modern Kavalla, where a Roman aqueduct, columns, and Greek and Latin inscriptions remain to attest the former importance of the city. Ten or twelve miles to the west are the traces of another harbour at Eski Kavalla, which was probably the Palaeopolis (= old town) that had been superseded by the new port.
