This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
19. οὐκ ἑγενόμην ἀπειθής, I was not disobedient. More literally, ‘I did not become, or prove, disobedient.’ The thought goes back to the ‘kicking against the pricks,’ the opposition of previous times. That was at an end now. Jesus was ‘Lord,’ and Saul’s only question ‘What wilt thou have me to do?’
τῇ οὐρανίῳ ὀπτασίᾳ, to the heavenly vision. ὀπτασία is a word of late origin. It occurs several times in N.T., Luk 1:22; 2Co 12:1; also frequently in the LXX. of Daniel.
