Atti 27:18 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 27:18

And we being exceedingly tossed with a tempest
Sometimes being lifted up as it were to the heavens, and then presently sinking down, as if they were going into the bottom of the sea; such a condition at sea is described to the life by the Psalmist, in ( Psalms 107:25-27 ) .

the next day they lightened the ship;
of its burden, its lading, the goods and merchandise that were in it; as the mariners did in the ship in which Jonah was, ( Jonah 1:5 ) the Ethiopic version renders it, "they cast the goods into the sea"; the Arabic version, the "merchandise".

Atti 27:18 In-Context

16 E scorsi sotto una isoletta, chiamata Clauda, appena potemmo avere in nostro potere lo schifo.
17 Il quale avendo pur tratto sopra la nave, i marinari usavano tutti i ripari, cingendo la nave di sotto; e, temendo di percuoter nella secca, calarono le vele, ed erano così portati.
18 Ed essendo noi fieramente travagliati dalla tempesta, il giorno seguente fecero il getto.
19 E tre giorni appresso, con le nostre proprie mani gettammo in mare gli arredi della nave.
20 E non apparendo nè sole, nè stelle, già per molti giorni, e soprastando non piccola tempesta, omai era tolta ogni speranza di scampare.
