Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 27:9-26

Acts 27:9-Ezekiel : . To Malta.— The Fast of the great Day of Atonement fell on the 10 th of Tishri (Sept.– Oct.). The season for shipping ended November 11 , and opened again March 5 ; but voyages were counted dangerous after the middle of September. Paul speaks as an experienced traveller, and one who has been thrice shipwrecked ( 2 Corinthians 11:25). He is against setting sail again ( Acts 27:21). The centurion, who had authority to control the navigation since the corn ship was a... read more

Sidon; a city in Phenicia, bordering upon Palestine, mentioned Matthew 11:21, and Acts 12:20. Julius courteously entreated Paul; as Felix had commanded that centurion to whom he committed him, Acts 24:23. And gave him liberty to go unto his friends to refresh himself; though Paul went with a soldier to guard him, as their manner was, yet it was a great favour that he might converse with his friends, and receive from them such refreshments towards his journey as he stood in need of. Now Paul... read more
