Commentary on Acts 27:31

Theological / Devotional

Paul said. He had had enough experience at sea (see on v. 10) to know that the proposed operation was unnecessary, and accordingly surmised that the sailors could have no other intention than to abandon ship. Except these abide. Only the sailors had the skill necessary to beach the ship and save the passengers.
