Acts 28:11-16 - Paul Arrives In Rome At Last
11 After three months we sailed on an Alexandrian ship that wintered at the island. The ship had the gods Castor and Pollux carved on its front. 12 We stopped at the city of Syracuse and stayed there three days. 13 We sailed from Syracuse and arrived at the city of Rhegium. The next day a south wind began to blow, and two days later we arrived at the city of Puteoli. 14 We came across some of the brothers, who kept us with them for seven days; and so we arrived at Rome. 15 When the brothers had news for us they came out from town as far as Appius Forum (Market place on the Appian Road) and the Three Taverns to have a meeting with us. Paul saw them and praised God. He was encouraged. 16 When we arrived at Rome they allowed Paul to have a house for himself and the armed man who kept watch over him.
