Explanation preview
These words come from the eyewitness account of Paul's voyage to Rome, as the ship carrying him and 275 others drifts helplessly in a two week storm. Luke, the narrator, notes that the crew could not identify the coastline, but they spotted a bay with a sandy shore and resolved to drive the vessel onto it.
