And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.
And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing, х mee (G3361) blepoon (G991): see the note at Acts 9:9] the sun for a season - the temporary character of the judgment being mercifully designed to lead him to repentance. But the tradition that it did so is hardly to be depended on.
And immediately there fell on him a mist (as the consequence of this) and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand - a graphic way of representing the reality of the miracle and his helplessness in consequence. There is a medical precision here which comports well with the profession of our historian.
