SAVED AT MELITA ISLAND
And being saved, they know the island is called Melita.
2 And the barbarians present us no ordinary philantrophy: for they light a fire and receive everyone of us - because of the rain standing by and because of the cold.

VIPER SEIZES THE HAND OF PAULOS
And Paulos ties a a multitude of kindling, and puts them on the fire; and a viper comes from the heat and seizes his hand.
4 And when the barbarians see the beast hang from his hand, they word among one another, Most certainly this human is a murderer, whom, though being saved from the sea, yet judgment allows not to live.
5 So indeed he shakes off the beast into the fire and suffers no evil.
6 But they watch for when he ought to inflame, or suddenly fall down dead: but after they await much and observe naught inordinate become him, they change their minds, and word that he is an El.

PAULOS HEALS THE FATHER OF PUBLIUS
Around those places are parcels of the preeminent man of the island, whose name is Publius; who entertains us, and courteously lodges us three days.
8 And so be it, the father of Publius is held by a fever and dysentery - to whom Paulos enters and prays and puts his hands on him and heals him.
9 So when this becomes, the rest in the island, who have frailties, come and are cured;
10 who also honor us with many honors: and when we embark, they put us with such as are needed.
11 And after three months we embark in a sailer of Alexandria which wintered in the isle - whose sign is Dioscuri:
12 and mooring at Syracuse, we abide there three days:
13 and from there, we wander around, and arrive in Rhegium: and after one day, the southerly springs forth, and next we come to Puteoli:
14 where we find brothers, who beseech us to abide among them seven days: and thus we go to Rome:
15 and from there, when the brothers hear concerning us, they come to meet us as far as Appii Forum and The Three Taverns - whom when Paulos sees, he eucharistizes Elohim and takes courage.
16
PAULOS COMES TO ROME
And when we come to Rome, the centurion delivers the prisoners to the arch warrior: but allows Paulos to abide by himself with a warrior to guard him.
17
PAULOS WITNESSES TO THE YAH HUDIYM
And so be it, after three days, Paulos calls together the preeminent of the Yah Hudiym: and when they come together, he words to them, Men and brothers, though I have done naught against the people or customs of our fathers, yet I am delivered - a prisoner from Yeru Shalem into the hands of the Romans:
18 who, when they examined me, willed to release me, because there is no cause of death in me.
19 And when the Yah Hudiym contradicted, I was compelled to call to the Kaisar - not that I had somewhat to accuse my goyim.
20 So for this cause I beseech you, to see you and to speak with you: indeed, that for sake of the hope of Yisra El, this fetter hangs around me.
21 And they say to him, We neither received scribings from Yah Hudah concerning you; nor any of the brothers who came evangelized or spoke any evil concerning you.
22 But we desire to hear from you, what you think: for indeed as concerning this heresy, we know it is contradicted every where.
23 And they ordain him a day; and many come to him into his lodging; to whom he expounds and witnesses the sovereigndom of Elohim, convincing them concerning Yah Shua, both from the torah of Mosheh and from the prophets from early morning until evening.
24 And some indeed confide in those that are worded - and some distrust.
25
PAULOS TURNS FROM THE YAH HUDIYM
And disagreeing with one another, they release after Paulos speaks one rhema, Well spoke the Holy Spirit through Yesha Yah the prophet, to our fathers,
26 wording, Go to this people, and say, Hearing you hear, and no way comprehend; and seeing you see, and no way see:
27 for the heart of this people calloused, and their ears burdensome of hearing, and they shut their eyes; lest ever they see with their eyes and hear with their ears and comprehend with their heart and turn around - and I heal them.
Isaiah 6:9,10
28
THE SALVATION OF ELOHIM IS APOSTOLIZED TO THE GOYIM So be it known to you, that the salvation of Elohim is apostolized to the goyim; and they hear it.
29 And saying these words, the Yah Hudiym depart, having much disputation among themselves.
30
PAULOS PREACHES AND DOCTRINATES THE SOVEREIGNDOM OF ELOHIM AND ADONAY YAH SHUA MESSIAH
And Paulos abides two whole years in his own rental, and receives all who enter to him,
31 preaching the sovereigndom of Elohim, and doctrinating those concerning Adonay Yah Shua Messiah with all boldness - unhindered.
