Acts16:6
6 Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia, and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia.
Phrygia and Galatia were parts of Asia minor.
They were forbidden of the Holy Ghost by some Revelation, (tho the manner is not known.)
For that time, tho afterwards Paul preached there about two Years together, Chap. 19.10. Thus God (the great Housholder) orders the Candle to be removed from one Room unto another; sends, or takes away the Light of the Gospel, to whom, and as often as he pleaseth. Our Calling, as well as our Election, is free; and we may say with our Saviour, Matth. 11.26. Even so Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight.
