Atti 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.

Atti 9:12 In-Context

10 Or in Damasco v’era un certo discepolo, chiamato Anania; e il Signore gli disse in visione: Anania! Ed egli rispose: Eccomi, Signore.

11 E il Signore a lui: Lèvati, vattene nella strada detta Diritta, e cerca, in casa di Giuda, un uomo chiamato Saulo, da Tarso; poiché ecco, egli è in preghiera,

12 e ha veduto un uomo, chiamato Anania, entrare e imporgli le mani perché ricuperi la vista.

13 Ma Anania rispose: Signore, io ho udito dir da molti di quest’uomo, quanti mali abbia fatto ai tuoi santi in Gerusalemme.

14 E qui ha podestà dai capi sacerdoti d’incatenare tutti coloro che invocano il tuo nome.
