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 Not far from that place were some fields that belonged to Publius, the chief of the island. He welcomed us kindly and for three days we were his guests.
8 Publius' father was in bed, sick with fever and dysentery. Paul went into his room, prayed, placed his hands on him, and healed him.
9 When this happened, all the other sick people on the island came and were healed.
10 They gave us many gifts, and when we sailed, they put on board what we needed for the voyage.
11 After three months we sailed away on a ship from Alexandria, called "The Twin Gods," which had spent the winter in the island.
