35 But Paul and Barnabas, along with many others, remained in Antioch, teaching and proclaiming the word of the Lord.(A)
Paul and Barnabas Part Company
36 After some time had passed, Paul said to Barnabas, ‘Let’s go back and visit the brothers and sisters in every town(B) where we have preached the word of the Lord and see how they’re doing.’ 37 Barnabas wanted to take along John who was called Mark. 38 But Paul insisted that they should not take along this man who had deserted them in Pamphylia and had not gone on with them to the work. 39 They had such a sharp disagreement that they parted company, and Barnabas took Mark(C) with him and sailed off to Cyprus. 40 But Paul chose Silas and departed, after being commended by the brothers and sisters to the grace of the Lord.(D)

Disagreement Between Paul and Barnabas
36 Some time later Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us go back and visit the believers in all the towns(C) where we preached the word of the Lord(D) and see how they are doing.” 37 Barnabas wanted to take John, also called Mark,(E) with them, 38 but Paul did not think it wise to take him, because he had deserted them(F) in Pamphylia and had not continued with them in the work. 39 They had such a sharp disagreement that they parted company. Barnabas took Mark and sailed for Cyprus, 40 but Paul chose Silas(G) and left, commended by the believers to the grace of the Lord.(H)

35 Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
36 And some days after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they do.
37 And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark.
38 But Paul thought not good to take him with them, who departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.
39 And the contention was so sharp between them, that they departed asunder one from the other: and so Barnabas took Mark, and sailed unto Cyprus;
40 And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brethren unto the grace of God.

Division over John Mark
36 Then after some days Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us now go back and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they are doing.” 37 Now Barnabas [a]was determined to take with them (B)John called Mark. 38 But Paul insisted that they should not take with them (C)the one who had departed from them in Pamphylia, and had not gone with them to the work. 39 Then the contention became so sharp that they parted from one another. And so Barnabas took Mark and sailed to (D)Cyprus; 40 but Paul chose Silas and departed, (E)being [b]commended by the brethren to the grace of God.
