Acts 21:3-5
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
3 When we had come in sight of Cyprus, leaving it on the left we sailed to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unload its cargo. 4 And having sought out the disciples, we stayed there for seven days. Through the Spirit they told Paul not to go[a] on to Jerusalem. 5 And when our days there were ended, we departed and went on our journey; and they all, with wives and children, brought us on our way till we were outside the city; and kneeling down on the beach we prayed and bade one another farewell.

- 21.4 told Paul not to go: This was not a command. The Holy Spirit enlightened them about what lay before Paul and they naturally wished to spare him; cf verse 11.
