Paul Sails for Rome

27 It was decided that we would sail for Italy. An ·officer [centurion] named Julius, who served in the ·emperor’s army [Imperial/Augustan regiment; ^Ca military unit directly under Caesar], ·guarded [took charge of] Paul and some other prisoners. ² We got on a ship that was from the city of Adramyttium [^Ca seaport on the northwest coast of Asia Minor] and was about to sail to different ports in Asia [^Ca Roman province, in present-day Turkey]. Aristarchus [19:29; 20:4; Col. 4:10; Philem. 24], a man from the city of Thessalonica [17:1] in Macedonia [16:9], went with us.
