Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Acts 16:11-12

_ _ Therefore loosing from Troas, we came — literally, “ran.”

_ _ with a straight course — that is, “ran before the wind.”

_ _ to Samothracia — a lofty island on the Thracian coast, north from Troas, with an inclination westward. The wind must have set in strong from the south or south-southeast to bring them there so soon, as the current is strong in the opposite direction, and they afterwards took five days to what they now did in two (Acts 20:6) [Howson].

_ _ next day to Neapolis — on the Macedonian, or rather Thracian, coast, about sixty-five miles from Samothracia, and ten from Philippi, of which it is the harbor.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Acts 16:6-15.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Acts 16:11

We ran with a straight course — Which increased their confidence that God had called them.
