Acts 28:9 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 28:9

So when this was done
This miracle was wrought, and the fame of it spread over the island:

others also which had diseases in the island came:
from all parts of it, to the apostle:

and were healed;
of whatsoever diseases they were afflicted with.

Acts 28:9 In-Context

7 Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the leading man of the island, named Publius, who welcomed us and entertained us courteously three days.
8 And it happened that the father of Publius was lying in bed afflicted with recurrent fever and dysentery; and Paul went in to see him and after he had prayed, he laid his hands on him and healed him.
9 After this had happened, the rest of the people on the island who had diseases were coming to him and getting cured.
10 They also honored us with many marks of respect; and when we were setting sail, they supplied us with all we needed.
11 At the end of three months we set sail on an Alexandrian ship which had wintered at the island, and which had the Twin Brothers for its figurehead.
