Acts 14:10 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 14:10

Said with a loud voice
Not only that the man, but that all might hear and attend to the miracle about to be wrought:

stand upright on thy feet;
in five of Beza's manuscripts, and in other copies, and in the Complutensian edition, and in the Syriac version, this clause is introduced with these words, "I say unto thee, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ"; which is much such a form that Peter used, ( Acts 3:6 ) whereby the virtue of the miracle is ascribed to Christ, and not assumed by the apostle:

and he leaped and walked;
he sprung up directly from his seat, and leaped about for joy, and walked as well as any other man could.

Acts 14:10 In-Context

8 In Lystra a man without strength in his feet, lame from birth, and who had never walked, sat

9 and heard Paul speaking. After observing him closely and seeing that he had faith to be healed,

10 [Paul] said in a loud voice, "Stand up straight on your feet!" And he jumped up and started to walk around.

11 When the crowds saw what Paul had done, they raised their voices, saying in the Lycaonian language, "The gods have come down to us in the form of men!"

12 And they started to call Barnabas, Zeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the main speaker.
