Bible moment
The Bible moment
Acts 9:7-9 describes the men traveling with Saul standing speechless. They heard the voice but saw no one. Saul rose from the ground, but when he opened his eyes, he could not see. His companions led him by the hand into Damascus. There he remained blind for three days and neither ate nor drank. This moment followed Jesus’ confrontation with Saul on the road. The passage does not name Saul’s companions or explain his blindness medically. It simply records what happened as Saul entered the city, awaiting what he would be told to do. The account shows Saul dependent on others and facing a serious change in direction.
