Acts27:32
Cut off the ropes, etc. It is evident that the mariners had not yet got on board the boat. They had let it down into the sea, Acts 27:30, and were about to go on board. By thus cutting the ropes which fastened the boat to the ship, and letting it go, they removed all possibility of their fleeing from the ship, and compelled them to remain on board.
