Interesting tale about Paul being transported by the Roman centurions. Crazy that the entire trip seemed to be plagued by bad weather. They had numerous stops, starts and waiting for storms to pass.

Makes me wonder if this is simply history, or an illustration of the way life can knock us when we're down.

Of course toward the end it seems to become spiritual when Paul makes recommendations for the safety of the crew but is ignored and the trip continued on toward Phoenix in Crete. Foreshadowing...

Acts 27:1-12
