With that he took bread, gave thanks to God in front of them all, broke it and began to eat.
In context
33As day was about to break, Paul urged them all to eat something. “For fourteen days now,” he said, “you have been waiting in suspense, going without food, eating nothing. 34So I urge you to eat: it will keep you alive. Not one of you will lose a hair from his head.” 35With that he took bread, gave thanks to God in front of them all, broke it and began to eat. 36They were all encouraged, and took food themselves. 37In all we were two hundred and seventy-six souls on board.
