Acts 27:36 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Believing Paul's words, promising in the name of that God whom he served, that they should all be preserved; believing, they did rejoice. Now Paul, a prisoner, a neglected and contemned person, comes to be valued and credited. Whilst they sailed with a prosperous gale, neither God, nor his poor prisoner and chained apostle, is thought upon; but in a storm or tempest they are glad to believe and follow his direction. God's stars shine in the night, and are seen in affliction.

Acts 27:36

36 Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took some meat.
