Euroclydon
Acts 27:13-14 KJV "And when the south wind blew
softly, supposing that they had obtained [their] purpose, loosing [thence],
they sailed close by Crete." "But not long after there arose against
it a tempestuous wind, called Euroclydon."
This Euroclydon (Hurricane) was a terrible storm from
the east. This bad weather had to do with the oncoming winter. It seemed they
hung to the coastline for safety.
This is a strong, dangerous windstorm greatly feared by
those who sailed the Mediterranean.
Acts 27:15 "And when the ship was caught, and could
not bear up into the wind, we let [her] drive."
This is just saying there was no way of going the direction the captain wanted to go without capsizing the ship, so he just let the wind carry them where it would. They were moving, if not in the right direction.
Extra Notes:
The trees inside Biosphere 2
grew rapidly, more rapidly than they did outside of the dome, but they
also fell over before reaching maturation... Without stress
wood, a tree can grow quickly, but it cannot support itself
fully. It cannot withstand normal wear and tear, and survive.
