Stood; that in this posture he might more conveniently put his hands upon Paul; which we read that he now did, Act 9:17, and was ordinarily done upon the miraculous curing of any.
The same hour; or, as Act 9:18, immediately. The suddenness of the cures spake the power from whence they came: none but God saves and delivers after this manner.

For thou shalt be his witness unto all men,.... Gentiles as well as Jews, an eye and an ear witness to them;
of what thou hast seen and heard; as that he saw him personally and alive, and so could witness to the truth of his resurrection; for after he had been seen by all the apostles, he was last of all seen of Paul; and also, that he heard him and received from him the Gospel, and a mission and commission to preach it; for what he preached he did not receive of man, nor was he taught it by any, but he had it by revelation from Jesus Christ.
