Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he shook off the beast into the fire,.... Having held it a while, and as being master of it, and as not being afraid of it, though it was the ready way to provoke it to fasten on him again:
and felt no harm; it having not bit him, nor infected him with its poison; and hereby was fulfilled what our Lord promised to his disciples, Mark 16:18;
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And he shook off ... - In this was remarkably fulfilled the promise of the Saviour Mark 16:18; “They shall take up serpents,” etc.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Acts 28:5. Shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm. — This is a presumptive evidence that the viper did not bite St. Paul: it fastened on his hand, but had no power to injure him.
