This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

up and down in Adria - the Adriatic, that sea which lies between Greece and Italy.

about midnight the shipmen deemed - no doubt from the peculiar sound of the breakers.

that they drew near some country - “that some land was approaching them.” This nautical language gives a graphic character to the narrative.
