Hechos 9:12 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 9:12

And hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias
Some read this verse in a parenthesis, and take them to be the words of Luke the historian; but it is rather a continuation of the words of Christ, telling Ananias, for his greater encouragement to go to Saul, that he had seen him in a vision, and had knowledge both of his person, and of his name, and of what he was to do to him; for in the vision or dream, he had been represented to him as

coming in;
to the house, and into the room where he was:

and putting his hand on him, that he might receive his sight;
without which he had been three days, and which he did receive upon Ananias's putting his hands on him.

Hechos 9:12 In-Context

10 Había entonces un discípulo en Damasco llamado Ananías, al cual el Señor dijo en visión: Ananías. Y él respondió: Heme aquí, Señor.
11 Y el Señor le dijo: Levántate, y ve á la calle que se llama la Derecha, y busca en casa de Judas á uno llamado Saulo, de Tarso: porque he aquí, él ora;
12 Y ha visto en visión un varón llamado Ananías, que entra y le pone la mano encima, para que reciba la vista.
13 Entonces Ananías respondió: Señor, he oído á muchos acerca de este hombre, cuántos males ha hecho á tus santos en Jerusalem:
14 Y aun aquí tiene facultad de los príncipes de los sacerdotes de prender á todos los que invocan tu nombre.
