John Gill's Exposition of the Bible
Acts 27:26
Howbeit, we must be cast upon a certain island.
] This circumstance is foretold, that when the whole affair
should come to pass, it might be manifest that it was not a
casual thing, a fortuitous event, a business of chance, but was
predetermined by God, made known to the apostle, and predicted by
him. This island was Melita; and the fulfilment of this part of
the prediction is related in ( Acts 28:1 ) .
