   Melita, now Malta, the island on which Paul and his companions
   were cast, is situate in the Mediterranean sea, about fifty
   miles from the coast of Sicily, towards Africa; and is one
   immense rock of soft white free-stone, twenty miles long,
   twelve in its greatest breadth, and sixty in circumference.
   Some, however, with the learned Jacob Bryant, are of opinion
   that this island was Melita in the Adriatic gulf, near
   Illyricum; but it may be sufficient to observe, that the
   course of the Alexandrian ship, first to Syracuse and then to
   Rhegium, proves that it was the present Malta, as the proper
   course from the Illyrian Melita would have been first to
   Rhegium, before it reached Syracuse, to which indeed it need
   not have gone at all.
