“And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink.”
Acts 9:9 (KJV)
Commentary on Acts 9:9
For three days Saul neither ate nor drank, spending time in prayer (v.11). This fasting marks mourning over his sins and seeking God. The number three may parallel Christ's three days in the tomb - Saul's old life dying, new life coming. During this time, Saul received a vision of Ananias coming to restore his sight (v.12), showing God was preparing both men for their meeting. Reformed theology sees this period as God's work of regeneration - the Holy Spirit creating a new heart in Saul, granting repentance and faith.
