The ship that was taking the apostle Paul to Rome, where he was to be judged, was shipwrecked on the coast of Malta around the year 60. After escaping the storm, he was also unaffected by the bite of a poisonous snake, which he threw into a fire (pictured left). This impressed the crowds who were converted (Acts of the Apostles, 28:1-6)
