“As the historical record continues, Paul’s plans to leave directly for Jerusalem are abruptly changed, and a detour is made necessary.  While at Miletus, Paul addresses the elders from the church at Ephesus and tells them that he anticipates possible imprisonment and persecution upon his return to Jerusalem.  Paul undoubtedly also warns them of the danger of falling away from the teaching of Christ — a concern which he will address at length in various letters later in his life.”
