20:1 And after the uproar was ceased, Paulos called unto [him] the taught ones, and embraced [them], and departed for to go into Makedon.

20:2 And when he had gone over those parts, and had given them much exhortation, he came into Hellas (Greece),

20:3 And [there] abode three months. And when the Yehudim laid wait for him, as he was about to sail into Syria, he purposed to return through Makedon.

20:4 And there accompanied him into Asia Sopatros of Beroia; and of the Thessalonikeus, Aristarchos and Sekoundos; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timotheos; and of Asia, Tuchikos and Trophimos.

20:5 These going before tarried for us at Troas.

20:6 And we sailed away from Philippos after the Yamim ha Matzot lechem, and came unto them to Troas in five days; where we abode seven days.

20:7 And upon the Yom Rishon, when the taught ones came together for a TISH (it was Motzoei Shabbot when there was a Melaveh Malkeh communal meal), Paulos proclaimed unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.

20:8 And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where they were gathered together.

20:9 And there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutuchos, being fallen into a deep sleep: and as Paulos was long proclaiming, he sunk down with sleep, and fell down from the third floor, and was taken up dead.

20:10 And Paulos went down, and fell on him, and embracing [him] said, Trouble not yourselves; for his life is in him.

20:11 When he therefore was come up again, and had Betzi’at (broke) haLechem, and eaten, and talked a long while, even till break of day, so he departed.

20:12 And they brought the young man alive, and were not a little comforted.

20:13 And we went before to ship, and sailed unto Assos, there intending to take in Paulos: for so had he appointed, minding himself to go afoot.

20:14 And when he met with us at Assos, we took him in, and came to Mitulene.

20:15 And we sailed thence, and came the next [day] over against Chios; and the next [day] we arrived at Samos, and tarried at Trogullion; and the next [day] we came to Miletos.

20:16 For Paulos had determined to sail by Ephesos, because he would not spend the time in Asia: for he hasted, if it were possible for him, to be at Yerushalayim ha Yom Shavuot (Pentekoste).

20:17 And from Miletos he sent to Ephesos, and called the zekenim of the assembly.

20:18 And when they were come to him, he said unto them, Ye know, from the first day that I came into Asia, after what manner I have been with you at all seasons,

20:19 Serving Adonay with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Yehudim:

20:20 [And] how I kept back nothing that was profitable [unto you], but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house,

20:21 Testifying both to the Yehudim, and also to the Yevanis, repentance toward Elohim (אלהים), and faith toward our Adonay Yeshua (ישוע) Moshiach.

20:22 And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Yerushalayim, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:

20:23 Save that the Ruach HaKodesh witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me.

20:24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of Adonay Yeshua (ישוע), to testify the good news of the grace of Elohim (אלהים).

20:25 And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone proclaiming the Malkut Elohim (אלהים), shall see my face no more.

20:26 Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I [am] pure from the blood of all [men].

20:27 For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of Elohim (אלהים).

20:28 Therefore take heed to yourselves, and to all the flock, over which the Ruach HaKodesh has established you as overseers, to shepherd the assembly of Adonay, which He purchased with His own blood.

20:29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.

20:30 Also of your own selves shall anashim arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away taught ones after them.

20:31 Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.

20:32 And now, brethren, I commend you to Elohim (אלהים), and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.

20:33 I have coveted no man's silver, or gold, or apparel.

20:34 Yea, ye yourselves know, that these hands have ministered unto my necessities, and to them that were with me.

20:35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the Devarim Adonay Yeshua (ישוע), how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.

20:36 And when he had thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all.

20:37 And they all wept sore, and fell on Paulos's neck, and kissed him,

20:38 Sorrowing most of all for the words which he spake, that they should see his face no more. And they accompanied him unto the ship.

Is Yom Rishon on Sunday - Acts 20:7? - no

Yom Rishon - first [day] of the weeek  In Hebrew calendars and dates a new day always begin from sundown to sundown. If the Yom Rishon is on Sunday that would be the second day. Sunday night way until Monday? It does not make sense

for a TISH - in tradition custom of the Jews known as tish (it was Motzoei Shabbot when there was a Melaveh Malkeh communal meal)

Motzoei Shabbat: the night following Yom Shabbat
Ac 20:7 - On Motza'ei-Shabbat, when we were gathered to break bread, Sha'ul addressed them. Since he was going to leave the next day, he kept talking until midnight.

1 Korintos 16:2 - Every week, on Motza'ei-Shabbat, each of you should set some money aside, according to his resources, and save it up; so that when I come I won't have to do fundraising.

What is Melaveh Malkeh? - (lit. "accompanyy the queen"); sometimes immediately after the Havdalah there is usually a festive meal held on Saturday night to escort the departing Shabbat Queen. The keyword that denote a Havdalah (end of the Shabbat - separation) is in 20:8 "there were many lights"
