Summary

Acts 9 Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out threats and murder on the Lord’s disciples. He went to the high priest 2and requested from him ofﬁcial letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that he could ﬁnd people who belonged to the Way, men and women alike, tie them up and bring them back to Jerusalem. 3While he was on the journey, and was getting near to Damascus, suddenly a light from heaven shone around him. 4He fell on the ground and heard a voice speaking to him. ‘Saul, Saul!’ said the voice. ‘Why are you persecuting me?’ 5‘Who are you, Lord?’ he asked. ‘I am Jesus,’ he said, ‘and you are persecuting me. 6But get up and go into the city, and it will be told you what you have to do.’ 17So Ananias set off, went into the house, and laid his hands on him. ‘Brother Saul,’ he said, ‘the Lord has sent me – yes, Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you were coming here – so that you may be able to see again, and receive the holy spirit.’ 18At once something like scales fell off his eyes, and he was able to see. He got up and was baptized. 19He had something to eat, and regained his strength. The Bible for Everyone: A New Translation . SPCK. Kindle Edition.

Episode Description

Acts 9

Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out threats and murder on the Lord’s disciples. He went to the high priest 2and requested from him ofﬁcial letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that he could ﬁnd people who belonged to the Way, men and women alike, tie them up and bring them back to Jerusalem. 3While he was on the journey, and was getting near to Damascus, suddenly a light from heaven shone around him. 4He fell on the ground and heard a voice speaking to him. ‘Saul, Saul!’ said the voice. ‘Why are you persecuting me?’ 5‘Who are you, Lord?’ he asked. ‘I am Jesus,’ he said, ‘and you are persecuting me. 6But get up and go into the city, and it will be told you what you have to do.’

17So Ananias set off, went into the house, and laid his hands on him. ‘Brother Saul,’ he said, ‘the Lord has sent me – yes, Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you were coming here – so that you may be able to see again, and receive the holy spirit.’ 18At once something like scales fell off his eyes, and he was able to see. He got up and was baptized. 19He had something to eat, and regained his strength.

Teach us, good Lord,
to serve thee as thou deservest;
to give and not to count the cost;
to fight and not to heed the wounds;
to toil and not to seek for rest;
to labour and not to ask for any reward,
save that of knowing that we do thy will,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen
