Gill's Notes on the Bible
Howbeit, we must be cast upon a certain island. This circumstance is foretold, that when the whole affair should come to pass, it might be manifest that it was not a casual thing, a fortuitous event, a business of chance, but was predetermined by God, made known to the apostle, and predicted by him. This island was Melita; and the fulfilment of this part of the prediction is related in Acts 28:1.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Howbeit - Nevertheless.
Upon a certain island - Malta. See Acts 28:1.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Acts 27:26. We must be cast upon a certain island. — The angel which gave him this information did not tell him the name of the island. It turned out to be Melita, on which, by the violence of the storm, they were wrecked some days after.
