Acts 9:18

Something like fish scales. As soon as Ananias says "Brother Saul, see again!" this happens. He stood up and was baptized. J.F. Bethune-Baker, in An Introduction to the Early History of Christian Doctrine says this of how the early church understood the role of baptism: "It was regarded as in itself conveying the blessings and the grace which were bestowed. It was the medium by which the power of the life and death of Christ was made effective to the individual experience. " See note on Acts 22:16.
