What the Fathers say
Eastern Fathers
John Chrysostom
"And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the Churches." And now he journeyed by land, wishing even by his journeying to benefit those who saw him. For when indeed they were in haste they sailed, but now not so. "And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the Churches. Then came he to Derbe and Lystra." Mark the wisdom of Paul: he does not go to other cities before he has visited them which had received the Word. For it is folly to run at random. …
Theophylact of Ohrid
Before going to other cities, he visits those which had already received the word of God. We do the same: we first instruct the earliest people, so that they do not become an obstacle to the instruction of those who come after.
