4 Perseguí a muerte a los seguidores de este Camino, arrestando y echando en la cárcel a hombres y mujeres por igual,

Hechos 22:4 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 22:4

And I persecuted this way unto the death
That is, the Christian religion, and the professors of it; whom the apostle breathed out threatenings and slaughter against, haled out of their houses, and committed to prison; consented to their death, as he did to Stephen's; and whenever it was put to the vote, whether they should die or not, he gave his voice against them; so that he was a most bitter enemy, and an implacable persecutor of them; which shows how very averse he was to this way, and how great his prejudices were against it; wherefore it must be a work of divine power, and there must be the singular hand of God in it, to reconcile him to it, and cause him to embrace and profess it:

binding and delivering into prisons, both men and women:
see ( Acts 8:3 ) ( 9:2 ) .

Hechos 22:4 In-Context

2 Al oír que les hablaba en arameo, guardaron más silencio.Pablo continuó:
3 «Yo soy judío, nacido en Tarso de Cilicia, pero criado en esta ciudad. Bajo la tutela de Gamaliel recibí instrucción cabal en la ley de nuestros antepasados, y fui tan celoso de Dios como cualquiera de ustedes lo es hoy día.
4 Perseguí a muerte a los seguidores de este Camino, arrestando y echando en la cárcel a hombres y mujeres por igual,
5 y así lo pueden atestiguar el sumo sacerdote y todo el Consejo de ancianos. Incluso obtuve de parte de ellos cartas de extradición para nuestros hermanos judíos en Damasco, y fui allá con el fin de traer presos a Jerusalén a los que encontrara, para que fueran castigados.
6 »Sucedió que a eso del mediodía, cuando me acercaba a Damasco, una intensa luz del cielo relampagueó de repente a mi alrededor.
