And when his eyes were opened, he saw no man:— And though his eyes were open, he was incapable of discerning objects, and saw no one man of those who stood near him; forhis nerves were so affected with the glory of that light, which had shone from the body of Jesus, that he had lost the power of sight. The divine Glory had struck his bodily eyes quite blind; as the eyes of his understanding had hitherto been in the midst of the marvellous light of the gospel: see ch. Acts 22:11. But the judicious reader, desirous of enteringfully into this wonderful transaction, will not refer to single verses only, but will diligently compare the whole account, as given by St. Paul himself.
