Now Paul, a prisoner, a neglected and contemned person, comes to be valued and credited. Whilst they sailed with a prosperous gale, neither God, nor his poor prisoner and chained apostle, is thought upon; but in a storm or tempest they are glad to believe and follow his direction. Gods stars shine in the night, and are seen in affliction. <\/P> <\/p>\n 36.

Faith, optimism, and good cheer, are contagious for good, Php_4:4; 1Th 5:16<\/span>; 2Co 6:10<\/span>.

The hearty cheerfulness (is it too colloquial a phrase to say the pluck?) of the Apostle had communicated itself, as by a kind of electric sympathy, to his companions. They looked to him as their friend and leader, and had spirits to eat once more.<\/p>\n 36<\/strong>. <\/strong> Of good cheer<\/strong> Revived hope revived the appetite. <\/p>\n Meat<\/strong> Food.<\/p>\n ‘Then were they all of good cheer, and they themselves also took food.’<\/p>\n And the result of his practical example was that they all took heart and themselves also took food.

Luckock points out that St. Luke distinguishes between the bread of which the Apostle partook and the food, , taken by the rest, and certainly the expression is remarkable, cf.<\/em> Luk 22:19<\/span> , 1Co 11:23-24<\/span> ; but it is perhaps noteworthy that the Romanist Felten (see above) sees no reference to the Eucharist, although he fully admits that this act of Paul in thus giving thanks must have made a great impression at such a moment. , Act 27:22<\/span> , cf.<\/em> 2Ma 11:26 . : “also themselves,” following his example. For the second time Paul had restored their courage by his faith and prudence; the event had already shown that he deserved confidence, and it is evident that he inspired it; see the testimony of Breusing, pp. 198, 199.<\/p>\n Wendt, so too Jngst, and Clemen see no reason to regard Act 27:33-36<\/span> as an interpolation in the “We” source, as Act 27:21-26<\/span> above. Overbeck regards both sections as standing or falling together, and treats them both as interpolations, but Ramsay, whilst regarding the two sections as inseparably connected, treats them both as belonging to the original “We” source, and he rightly expresses surprise at those who accept Act 27:33<\/span> ff., and refuse to accept Act 27:21-26<\/span> ( Saint Paul<\/em> , p. 337); much more intelligible is the judgment of Weizscker than that of the other German critics in question when he describes the narrative as an indivisible whole, and considers it impossible to disentangle the mere history of travel from it, or to strip away the miraculous additions.<\/p>\n of good cheer.

Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took some meat. In one sense the meal may truly be said to have been eucharistic. This is one of those passages in the Acts of the Apostles which tend, though it records many depressing and discouraging circumstances, to give a cheerful character to the book. See, for instance, Act 1:12 (with Luk 24:52), Act 16:25, Act 28:15. On the occasion before our notice, it is evident that the people on board were utterly exhausted, and had lost all heart, so that even the desire for food was gone.<\/p>\n See notes on verse 33<\/p>\n Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took [some] meat. 36. all of good cheer ] Paul’s hopeful spirit had breathed hope into the whole company, and doubtless the religious character infused into the meal was not without a calming influence. took some meat ] The “some” of the A.
