Acts 28:13

From there we circled round and reached Rhegium. And after one day the south wind blew; and the next day we came to Puteoli,

1. The KJV says they "fetched a compass." This is not accurate. The word here means one who goes around, a wanderer, one who strolls around, one who makes a circuit. (Thayer)

2. The meaning is that they went around the island of Sicily.

3. They reach the first city of Italy itself.

4. Now, instead of violent storms, they have a favorable wind. A wind from the south makes traveling north very easy.

5. They arrive at Puteoli, a city of wells. A city known for its warm water baths. These baths were sulfur water, with typical "rotten egg" aroma that goes with sulfur. The name of the city comes from the "putrid" smell of the sulfur baths.
