• The subject of his preaching differs a little from that of Peter, and responds to the revelation of Christ, which was made to him. Peter preached that God had exalted the Jesus whom they had rejected; Saul, that Christ was the Son of God. (“Meditations on Acts 9” by J.N. Darby)
• Here it is the simple doctrine as to His personal glory; Jesus is the Son of God. (“Acts 9:1-31” by J.N. Darby)
• The other apostles knew it but are not said to have preached it. (“Acts 9:19-22” by W. Kelly)
• Saul thus preached Jesus “immediately” and “in the synagogues.” Hence we may see how powerfully, and the more so because indirectly, the account of Luke confirms his own explicit statement to the Galatians, that he did not receive the gospel he preached from man, nor was he taught it but by revelation of Jesus Christ. (“Acts 9:19-22” by W. Kelly)
• What a testimony to conscience that he should preach Jesus, and preach Him as the Son of God! (“Acts 9:19-22” by W. Kelly)

And straightway in the synagogues he preached Jesus that *he* is the Son of God.

And immediately in the synagogues he preached Jesusa, g that he is the Son of God.

WK Translation Notes

a
It is "Jesus" in most MSS.; a few have "Jesus Christ." To preach to them "the Christ" or Messiah as the Son of God would have served no adequate purpose.
