27:36

They were all encouraged and took some food themselves: Luke wrote this book. He was on the ship with Paul. While he probably ate at this time, the focus is on the people of the ship.

They were all encouraged: After seeing Paul’s example, the people felt better about their chances to live through this storm.

food: This refers to any kind of food. The people probably did not cook. The food may have included the grain mentioned in 27:38.
