Barnes New Testament Notes by Albert Barnes

THE ACTS OF THE APOSTLES - Chapter 27 - Verse 39

Verse 39. They knew not the land. They had been driven with a tempest, without being able to make any observation; and it is probable that they were entire strangers to the coast, and to the whole island.

A certain creek with a shore. Greek, A certain bosom -- kolpon -- or bay. By its having a shore is probably meant that it had a level shore, or one that was convenient for landing. It was not a high bluff of rocks, but was accessible. Kuinoel thinks that the passage should be construed, |they found a certain shore, having a bay,| etc.

Were minded. Were resolved.

{} |minded| |determined|
