Acts 28:6 Themes and Topics

And being saved, then they knew that the island was called Melita. And the foreigners showed us not the common kindness. For they kindled a fire and welcomed all of us, because of the rain coming on, and because of the cold. And Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laying them on the fire, a viper came out of the heat and fastened on his hand. read more.
And when the foreigners saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, being saved from the sea, Justice has not allowed to live. Then indeed he shook off the creature into the fire, suffering no harm. But they expected him to be about to become inflamed, or to fall down dead suddenly, But over much time expecting and seeing nothing amiss happening to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.

Then this taking place, the rest who were having infirmities in the island also came, and were healed. They also honored us with many honors. And on our setting sail, they laid on the things of our needs.
