This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

And now (kai ta nun). Accusative plural neuter article of general reference in contrast with men in Act 27:21. Paul shows modesty (Bengel) in the mild contrast.

No loss of life (apobolē psuchēs oudemia). Old word from apoballō, to throw away, only twice in N.T. Rom 11:15 (rejection) and here. He had foretold such loss of life as likely (Act 27:10), but he now gives his reason for his changed view.
