L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 28:1-31

Very soon contacting inhabitants, they found that the island was called Melita, present day Malta. The people are called "barbarous," which only means they were not Greek or Jewish -- not the cultured classes: there is nothing derogatory in the term. In fact they proved themselves most hospitable and kind, kindling a large fire to warm the shivering crowd. Paul, not averse to laboring with his hands, gathered sticks also to supply the fire. When a poisonous viper, springing out of the heat,... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Acts 28:1-31

A PRISONER AT ROME The reader is urged to add to the interest of this lesson by the further use of the map. The sea journey is marked by different stages, from: Adramyttium to Myra (Acts 27:1-5 ), · Myra to the Fair Havens (Acts 27:6-8 ), · Fair havens to Melita or Malta (Acts 27:6 to Acts 28:1 ), · Melita to Syracuse (Acts 28:2-12 ), · Syracuse to Rhegium, Puteoli and Rome (Acts 28:13-15 ). The most interesting stage is the third, which covers the shipwreck. In all classic literature there... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Acts 28:16-29

Chapter 104 Prayer Almighty God, we are living upon thy promises. We sing them to our souls and repeat them in all tones and forms until our spirit knows them well, and triumphs in their music, and is rich with their wealth. Thou wilt not permit us to live upon things that are false. Thou dost lead us by him, who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, towards the whole truth of God. Little by little the light grows upon our eyes; word by word comes the great sweet Gospel, which we could not hear... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Acts 28:30-31

Chapter 107 Prayer Almighty God, thou art our refuge and strength. They are strong who live in God; they are immortal who touch thine eternity with faith and love and hope. They cannot die: the sword cannot cut them to their destruction, nor can they be blown away by the great wind, nor can the lion devour them. Behold, they are hidden in God's pavilion, and under the shadow of the wings Divine do they put their trust. We bless thee for the great strong ones who have led the way. We love their... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Acts 28:23-29

And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging; to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening. (24) And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not. (25) And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Isaiah the prophet unto our fathers, (26)... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Acts 28:30-31

And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in unto him, (31) Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him. This was a blessed season to the Church at Rome, which the Lord Jesus granted them. And, from the awful character of the then emperor Nero, under whose cruelty afterwards, both Peter and Paul suffered martyrdom, we can only ascribe it to the Lord Jesus, that he... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Acts 28:31

REFLECTIONS READER! let us bless God the Holy Ghost for those precious Acts of his Apostles in his Church, for most blessed and delightful they are, as monuments of the Lord's grace in his servant's ministry. Think what multitudes now in glory, enjoyed the sweet savor of them, while on earth. Think how daily now the Lord is blessing them to his people. And, think what numbers yet unborn, will in succession rise up to the enjoyment of them, when you and I shall have been gathered to our fathers,... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Acts 28:30

Two whole years in his own hired lodging. That is, in the lodgings which St. Paul was permitted to hire for himself, and to live there, with a soldier chained to him for his guard. Happy soldier, if he knew how to make use of such a favourable opportunity! We may take notice by all this narration of St. Luke, (as when he says here, ver. 16, when we arrived at Rome, &c.) that he was all the way in the ship with St. Paul. (Witham) read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Acts 28:31

Here terminates the history of St. Paul, as contained in the Acts of the Apostles. The other actions of this great apostle, for want of being recorded, are involved in much obscurity. That he obtained his liberty again, and made many voyages to carry the light of the gospel into many countries, is certain: but nothing is known as to the manner or time. He finished his labours by martyrdom, being beheaded at Rome in the 66th of the Christian 'e6ra [the year A.D. 66], and the 13th of Nero. What a... read more
