He interrupts him when about to speak more fully, [or even attempts to accuse him of a lie (in laying claim to a “good conscience”).-V. g.]-ὁ ἀρχιερεὺς), the High Priest: not one of the many “chief priests,” of whom ch. Act 22:30 treats.-ἐπεταξε, commanded) without any cause.-αὐτῷ, himself) Ananias [not Paul].-στόμα, the mouth) as speaking unworthy things.
