What the Fathers say
Eastern Fathers
John Chrysostom
"And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavored to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach the Gospel unto them." "Assuredly gathering," it says, "that the Lord had called us." That is, inferring, both from the circumstance that Paul saw it and none other, and from the having been "forbidden by the Spirit," and from their being on the borders; from all these they gathered.
Theophylact of Ohrid
It should be noted that in these cities Luke was also with Paul. This is evident from the fact that the latter unites his own person with the former, when he says: "we resolved to set out... we sailed a straight course... we stayed."
Oecumenius
Notably, Luke was with Paul in those cities, as appears from these words in which he includes himself at the same time, saying: We sought, we came by a straight course, and other similar things. [AMMONIUS]
