A Cripple Healed at Lystra
“And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked:”
Acts 14:8 (KJV)
Commentary on Acts 14:8
A certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet—Luke's medical precision appears in his description: adynatos tois posin (powerless in the feet), being a cripple from his mother's womb (Greek cholos ek koilias mētros autou), who never had walked. This threefold emphasis—congenital condition, lifelong disability, complete inability—establishes that only supernatural power could heal him. The detail parallels Peter's healing of the lame man (Acts 3:2), showing Paul possessed equal apostolic authority. The man's condition symbolizes humanity's spiritual helplessness apart from divine intervention.
