Text 9f the Lesson, Acts jexvil, 13-26.
Memory Verses, 22-24 Golden Text,
xx" 5 Commentary Prepared
by Rev. D. M. Stearns. .
As we hear Agrlppa say privately to
Festus, "This man miht hare been
set at liberty if he had not appealed
unto Caesar" (xxri, 31), we are tenrot-
ed to feel a pang of regret that Paul M
had thus Rnnaalorl Kn4 ' I RSd
-, uui wueu we re
member, that his tiberty would proba
bly have - meant his death because of
the Jews, whot were watching their
opportunity to 'kill him, we are glad
that his life is still protected. Paul?
and other prisoners jarer committed to
the care of Julius, a rtoman'centurlon,
and set sail for Italy. 4ristarchus of
Macedonia (xlx, 29) being one of the
company. We have no account of fare
wells, as at other places, though we
cannot; Imagine that such were lack
ing, but we have quite a detailed ac
count of the voyage. We note, with
gratitude to God, the centurion's cour
teous treatment of Paul and that when
they' touched at Sidon he was allowed
to go unto his friends to refresh him
self (verse 2). We cannot but hnr
that this centurion ere he parted com
pany with Paul had received Jesus as
the Christ and thus become an heir of
the Inheritance and a joint heir with
Christ Himself.
After sailing by Crete they met the
storm, as Paul had feared, and for
two weeks they were exceedingly
tossed by the tempest saw neither sun
nor stars In many days, and all hope
that they should be saved was taken
away. A glance at the map will show
that they had completed about half the
voyage from Syria to Italy before
they ran into thisstorm. I remember
thinking much about it as one beauti
ful day in the fall of 1897 'we sailed
across from Port Said, in Egypt to
Briadisi, In Italy, and we passed close
by Crete. ,1 can never forget that
most refreshing sail across the Medi
terranean after the heat of China and
India and tropical seas and, last of all,
the blue Red sea, which, the captain
said, may .have been called red be
cause it was so often red hot We met
no eurocjydon, and, though I have
been in some storms, yet never have I
known anything like this that Paul
passed through. Thank God for all
who know in storm and fair weather
me refuge and rest there are in the
Lord Himself and in the consciousness
or His presence and care. He is in
deed our refuge and strength, a very
present help in trouble, a refuge from
the storm (Ps. xlvL 1; Isa. xxv, 4). He
was watching over his servant in all
this storm and probably comforted
him with the assurance, "The Lord on
high is mightier than the noise of
any waters yea, than the mighty
waves of the sea" (Ps. xciii, 4). No
doubt the assrance in chapter xxlii.
11, "Thou must bear witness also at
Bome,'rested Paul and made him be
lieve tharhere was some way out of
this, althoughxthe others had given up
all hope. Well, there came a day when
Paul stood forthtethe midst of them
and, with a word about the mistake
they had made in looslngfcpm Crete
told teem how a messenger fdta God
had come to him the night before and
had assured him that, while the sh
would be lost by being wrecked upo
some island, there would be no loss ofj
any man's life, and he added in the
words of the proverbial saying, "Ther
shall not an hair fall from the head of
any of you." Compare I Sam. xlv, 43
II Sam. xiv. 11; I Kings i, 52; Matt i
30; Luke xli, 7; xxl. 18. He exhorted
them to "be of good cheer" (22, 25, 36)
and he was successful, for as he took
bread and gave thanks to God in the
presence of -them all and began to eat
they also nta enough to strengthen
them and were all of good cheer
Thus one man helped 275 others by
his confidence In God (verses 34-37)
What a beautiful illustration of "In
quietness and In confidence shall be
your streng h" (Isa. xxx. IZu They
were of good cheer not because h
storm had ceased, but because they
had words from heaven on which to
rest No words of earth -or of man'
wisdom can. give rest in time of real
trouble, but we can rest quietly and
unwaveringly on the words of Him
who died for us and rose again and
who has all power in heaven"' and on
earth Whether this was . another ap
pearance of the Lord. Jesus TClmself,
as on three previous occasions (lx. 17
xviii, 9; xxlii. 11), or a messenger such
as Gabriel, it. was certainly a message
straight from heaven reminding Paul
that he mu&t be brought before Caesar
and that he must-not be afraid (verse
24). Then there was added. "And. lo
God hath given thee all them that sail
with thee." ' -
-How grand are -Paul's words icon
cernlng his relationship to .the Lord, 1 n
"Whose I am and whom I serve. (23), V
