This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, etc. - “The objections of Ananias, and the removal of them by the Lord, display in a very touching manner the childlike relation of the believing soul to its Redeemer. The Savior speaks with Ananias as a man does with his friend” [Olshausen].
how much evil he hath done to thy saints - “Thy saints,” says Ananias to Christ; therefore Christ is God [Bengel]. So, in Act 9:14, Ananias describes the disciples as “those that called on Christ’s name.” See on Act 7:59, Act 7:60; and compare 1Co 1:2.
