Church Fathers on Acts 22:14

And he said, The God of our fathers has chosen you, that you should know His will, and see That Just One. Acts 22:14 It is well said, Of the fathers, to show that they were not Jews, but aliens from the law, and that it was not from zeal (for the law) that they were acting. That you should know His will. Why then His will is this. See how in the form of narrative it is teaching.
