Acts 27:37 in context

The verses around it, from Acts 27.

33 Right up to daybreak, Paul kept urging them all to eat: “Today is your fourteenth day in constant suspense, without taking any food.

34 So for your own preservation, I urge you to eat something, because not a single hair of your head will be lost.”

35 After he had said this, Paul took bread and gave thanks to God in front of them all. Then he broke it and began to eat.

36 They were all encouraged and took some food themselves.

37 In all, there were 276 of us on board.

38 After the men had eaten their fill, they lightened the ship by throwing the grain into the sea.

39 When daylight came, they did not recognize the land, but they sighted a bay with a sandy beach, where they decided to run the ship aground if they could.

40 Cutting away the anchors, they left them in the sea as they loosened the ropes that held the rudders. Then they hoisted the foresail to the wind and made for the beach.

41 But the vessel struck a sandbar and ran aground. The bow stuck fast and would not move, and the stern was being broken up by the pounding of the waves.
