“Those who were with me indeed saw the light and were afraid, but they didn’t understand the voice of him who spoke to me.

ExplanationCommentary
EXPLANATION

Verse 9. Heard not the voice. To reconcile this with chapter 9 verse 7. where it is said that they heard the voice; it may be answered that they heard a noise, and a voice, but heard it not distinctly, nor so as to understand the words. Witham.—They heard not the voice of him who spoke to the apostle, but they heard the latter speak; (Acts 9:7) or perhaps they heard a noise, which they could not understand. They perhaps heard the voice of Paul answering, but not that of Christ complaining.
