Acts 7:59 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Stephen called upon him whom he saw standing, and that was our Saviour. My spirit; or, my soul: thus our Saviour commended his spirit into his Father's hands, Luke 23:46 and this disciple imitates his Master, and comforts himself with this, that to be sure his soul should be safe, whatever became of his body.

Acts 7:59

59 And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
