Paul was on a ship bound for Rome. There was a fierce storm and they were shipwrecked on a strange island, after the ship had been broken into small pieces. All 276 men "escaped to land." The land was a small island called Malta, 60 miles south of Sicily. The islanders on Malta were of Phoenician ancestry, which "showed no little kindness." God had promised Paul safe passage to (Acts 27:23-25), and he would let nothing stop his servant.
