Context of Acts 28:10
8And it happened that the father of Publius was sick [in bed] with recurring attacks of fever and dysentery; and Paul went to him, and after he had prayed, he laid his hands on him and healed him. 9After this occurred, the rest of the people on the island who had diseases were coming to him and being healed. They also gave us many honors [gifts and courtesies expressing respect]; and when we were setting sail, they supplied us with all the things we needed. 11At the end of three months we set sail on a ship which had wintered at the island, an Alexandrian ship with the Twin Brothers [Castor and Pollux] as its figurehead. 12We landed at Syracuse [on Sicily] and stayed there three days.

Commentaries on Acts 28:10
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 10Honoured us with many honors - The word , as Bishop Pearce has remarked, is often used to signify a pecuniary recompense, or present. The Greek word seems to be thus used in 1 Timothy 5:17. Let the elders which rule well be accounted worthy of double Honor, , which St. Chrysostom, on the place, explains thus: · a supplying them with all necessary things.
