In which John and David continue their exploration of Paul’s farewell speech to the Ephesian elders in Acts 20:22-24. We consider how Paul speaks about being “bound by the Spirit” and the compelling nature of his mission, despite the dangers that await. We reflect on the significance of the term “behold” in the biblical text, highlighting how it invites silence and attentiveness. This leads to a broader conversation on the practice of beholding in our spiritual lives while drawing connections between Paul’s words here and his letters, we explore the echoes of Philippians, Timothy, and more.
