Acts 26:14 In the Hebrew language. This fact that he here states is remarkable. Bengal says: "The Hebrew tongue, Christ's language when on earth; his language, too, when he spoke from heaven.' It was in the Aramaic, a Hebrew dialect, that the Savior taught when on earth, and it is a significant circumstance that Paul heard his voice in the same tongue to which Peter, James and John had listened. Not only is this true, but critics hold that the Hebraisms are so prominent in the Book of Revelation as to indicate that the revelations there recorded were made in Hebrew, and afterward translated by John into Greek. See Howson on "Acts", p. 546. It is hard for thee to kick against the goad. The proverb is here added (Acts 9:5).
Acts 26:12-14 As I went to Damascus. Compare Acts 9:1-2. This is the third account of Paul's conversion, the first being in Acts 9:3-18, and the second in Acts 22:4-16. There are a few new details given here: (1) The over-powering glory of the Lord is specially dwelt upon here; (2) we are here told that the voice heard was in the "Hebrew language" (he was now speaking Greek to King Agrippa).
