The three men reached Salamis, a city on the Island of Cyprus, the birthplace of Barnabas. They first preached in a place relatively close to Antioch. When revival hits, do not go great distances away to light another fire or your first one will go out. Go to places near to you, and keep plenty of wood burning at home. Keep your fires close together so that each one helps the other. In Salamis they preached the message of the new covenant in the synagogues. From Salamis they traveled the length of the Island of Cyprus until they came to Paphos in the western extremity. Here they encountered a sorcerer, a false prophet named Barjesus (Elymas).
