This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
when the fourteenth night was come - from the time they left Fair Havens.
as we were driven - drifting
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.
