Part of the story of Paul’s difficult journey on his way to Rome for judgement. Here, too, the Lord shows His mercy and help in difficult circumstances and reveals His will through Paul, as He did through the prophets, saving people from their misfortunes. The mutual support of Paul and the centurion Julius, his watchman, who took him to court, is also worthy of note.
I would also like to draw attention to the mention of the city of Myra of Lycia, where, by God’s will, St Nicholas the Wonderworker, also known for helping travellers and sailors in particular, became well-known.

John XVII, 21, 22 – ‘εν’ – ‘hen’ – one, the only one, united

John XVII, 23 – the same adjective is in the accusative case, but the
meaning is more similar to the concept of unity

The Lord prays for unity among the disciples, similar to the unity in the Holy Trinity. Through this unity, the world should also understand the disciples and come to know God through them. These are important words for the Church, which is One, the One (and it is the above-mentioned adjective that is meant here).
I wrote about perichoresis, the mutual presence in the Trinity, and
