This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
13 Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem:
Ver. 13. Then Ananias answered] The best have their unnecessary fears, and think they have reason on their side; but convinced, they soon subscribe to God. Veniat, veniat verbum Domini, said one, et submittemus ei sexcenta si nobis essent colla.
How much evil he hath done] And is therefore not lightly to be trusted. It is a rule in the Civil Law, Semel malus semper praesumitur esse malus: but God can soon alter a man’s mind and manners, as he did Saul’s.
