Tnt of th, L.Min, Act. kxvii, 1S-2A ' | Memory Vsrsss, 22-24— Golden Text, Pa. xxxv ii, 6 — Commentary Prepared 1 ' by R«v. D. M. Steams. Aa we bear Agrippa say privately to Pestus, "This man might have been aet at liberty if, be had not appealed ' unto Caesar" (xxvL 31). we are tempted to feel a pang of regret that Paul had thus appealed, bnt when re- 1 member that his liberty would prohnwy have meant bis death because or >the Jews, who were watching tbelr 'opportunity to kill blm, we are glad" | that his life is still protected. Paul j and other prisoners were committed to the care of Jnllus. a Roman centurion. ; and set sail for Italy. Arlatarchna of j I Macedonia (xix, 29) being one of the i ; company. We have no account of fare- 1 I wells, as at other places, though we , cannot Imagine that such were lack- ' ing, but we have quite a detailed account of the voyage. We note, with ; gratitude to God, the centurion's courteous treatment of Paul and that when tbey touched at Sidon be was allowed to go unto his friends to refresh hlmself (vers* 2). We cannot but hope that this centurion ere he parted company with . aul bad received Jesus as the Christ and tbns become an heir of the Inheritance and a Joint heir with ; Christ Himself. ! After sailing by Crete they met the ' storm, as Panl bad feared, and for j two weeks they were exceedingly tossed by the tempest saw neither sun nor stars In many days, and all hope that they should be saved was taken | away. A glance at tbe map will show , that they bad completed about half the voyage from 8yrla to Italy before they ran Into thla storm. I remember , thinking mnch about ft as one beaut i ful day in tbe fall of 1897 we sailed across from Port Said, in LgypT to Brindisi, In Italy, and we idfilied close by Crete. 1 can never forget that " moat refreshing sail across tbe Medi- * ' terranean after the heat of China and - India and tropical seas and, last of all. \ tbe blue Red sea. which, tbe captain 1 said, may have been called red because It was so often red hot We met no euroclydon, and. tbongb I have ! been In some storms, yet never have I j known anything like this that Paul | passed through. Thank God for all I who know In storm and fair weather jthe refuge and rest there are In the • Lord Himself and In the consciousness of His presence and care. He Is Indeed our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble, a refuge from . the storm (Ps. XlvL 1 ; Isa. ^xv. 4). He was watching over his seiwhnt In all this storm and probably comforted him with the assurance. "Tbe Lord on high Is mightier than the noise of many waters— yea. than the mighty : waves of the sea" (Ps. xclli. 4). >S'o doubt tbe assurance In chapter xxill. > • 11. "Thou must bear witness also at Rome." rested Paul and mrfde him belleve that there was some way out of thla, although tbe others had given up - all hope. Well, there came a day when Panl stood forth In the midst of them and. with a -word about ehe mistake they had made in loosing from Crete. ! told them how a messenger from God j had come to hldvthe night before and ' had assured him that while the ship 1 would be lost by being wrecked upon some Island, there would be no loss of any man's life, and be added In* the words of the proverbial sayfDg, "There shall not an hair fall from thai head "f - any of yon." Compare I Sam. xiv. 45: | 'II Sam. xiv. 11; 1 Kings 1. 52; Matt x. 80: Luke xll. 7; xxi. 18. He exhorted . tbem to "l>e of good cheer" (22, 25. 36 1. and be was successful," for as be took bread and gave thanks to God In the presence »f tbem all and began to eat they also ate enough to strengthen - them and were all of good cheer. Thus one man helped 275 others by his confidence In God (verses 34-S7). What a beautiful Illustration of "In quietness and In confidence 6ball he your strength" (Isa. xxx. 15). They | were of good cheer not because tbe storm had ceased, but because they had words from heaven on which ' to rest. No words of earth or of man's wisdom can give rest In time of real trouble, but we can rest quietly and unwaveringly on "the words of Him who died for us and rose again and who has all power In heaven and on earth. Whether this was another appearance of tbe Lord Jesns Himself, as on three previous occasions (lx. 17; xvlll, 9; xxill. U). or a messenger such as Gabriel. !t was certainly a message straight from heaven reminding Paul . that he must be brought before Caesar ' and thai he must not be afraid (verse 24). Then there was added. "And, lo, . God hath given thee all tbem that sail with thee." How grand are Paul's words eon- , cernlng bis relationship to the Lord, "Whose I am and whom I serve" (28), ! the property of no earthly master, un- ' der no man's thumb, however great, bat able to say with Elijah and Ellah&. •*The lyird of Hosts liveth, before whom I stand." We know that one of his great principles was "not aa pleasing man. bat God, who trletb our hearts" (1 These, U, 4). Then his words of simple confidence tn God, "I believe 3 God, that It shall be even aa It was f told me" (25V- what a motto for a Ufej timet Let us say It concerning every 1 promise and prediction hi all the book; - let ns be fully persuaded that what e God baa promised He will perform : (Rom. It. 21), and let OS ass "Jesus aniy-"
