Acts 6:15

And all who sat in the council, looking steadfastly at him, saw his face as the face of an angel.

1. All who were in that meeting watched with great interest to see how he handled the charges made against him.

2. They knew the charges were false. But, if he called these men liars, he would be in deeper trouble for showing a lack of respect for the Jewish leaders.

3. They saw the countenance, appearance and look of an angel.

4. Albert Barnes says, "This expression is one evidently denoting that he manifested evidence of sincerity, gravity, fearlessness, confidence in God."

5. Here is not the proper place for a study of angels in the Bible. We often think of them in long white robes wings on their back, and a halo of golf above their head. When Abraham entertained angels he was not aware that they were indeed angels. He just say three men coming down the road toward him.
