What man tried to hinder Paul in Paphos?
In Paphos, the man who tried to hinder Paul was Elymas, also known as Bar-Jesus. He was a sorcerer and false prophet who opposed the teachings of Paul and Barnabas, attempting to turn the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, away from the faith. Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, confronted Elymas and pronounced a judgment upon him, resulting in Elymas becoming blind for a time. This event demonstrated the power of God in contrast to falsehood.

What was the name of the sorcerer who was struck blind by Paul the Apostle?
In fairness to Paul, we need to know whether there really was a sorcerer whom he assaulted, and therefore whether the name is one of a real person. The miracle is only reported in Acts, and Paul's own writings indicate he never even went to Cyprus where this was said to have occurred. One of the most important themes of Acts of the Apostles is a subtle comparison of Peter and Paul, with Peter always somehow more powerful and more inspiring in his powers than was Paul. Usually this took the form of Peter performing a miracle that helped someone and converted many, while Paul performed a similar miracle that also helped someone but failed to win many converts. However, not all such miracles were for the good. Peter performed astonishing miracles when he killed Ananias and his wife, while Paul's malevolent miracle merely involved bodily harm and only for a season. In an apparent miracle, Paul blinded Elymas (Bar-jesus) the sorcerer, for trying to frustrate his attempts to convert Sergius Paulus (Acts 13:11).
