Context of Acts 22:13

11And as I could not see, through the glory of that light, being led by the hand of those who were with me, I came to Damascus. 12And a certain Ananias, a pious man according to the law, borne witness to by all the Jews who dwelt [there], coming to me and standing by me, said to me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And I, in the same hour, received my sight and saw him. 14And he said, The God of our fathers has chosen thee beforehand to know his will, and to see the just one, and to hear a voice out of his mouth; 15for thou shalt be a witness for him to all men of what thou hast seen and heard.
