Matthew Poole and continuators on Acts 20:18

Strictly and properly so called; or that part of the lesser Asia, whose Metropolis was Ephesus.

A singular Form for a good man to use, if he must of necessity leave his Charge or Flock when his Conscience does not accuse him. St. Paul spake not this, as boasting of what he had done, or how he had been amongst them; but setting his example before them and others, to be imitated; and calling them for to witness the truth of it.
