The island where Paul was shipwrecked for three months and performed miracles of healing.
Paul was shipwrecked on Malta during his voyage to Rome (Acts 27-28). The islanders showed unusual kindness. Paul survived a viper bite without harm, and he healed Publius' father and many others. The three months on Malta demonstrated God's protection and power through signs and wonders.
Malta (ancient Melita) is a small island nation south of Sicily. The traditional shipwreck site is St. Paul's Bay on the northern coast. Archaeological evidence supports significant Roman presence during Paul's time, and the island quickly became Christian after his visit.
