Hi Msedna42, This would be like an Ox Goad - a sharpened stick used to drive and steer an ox, or other animal. Jesus is telling Paul, in so many words, that He has been sharply poking Paul, trying to turn Paul towards Himself, and "its hard for you to fight against Me", if you will. When Paul descibes himself in 1 Cor. 15 as "one born out of time", the actual word is "born of abortion", we would think of this as forced labor. Paul had been fighting the conviction from the Lord, which Jesus likened to poking Paul with sharp sticks. Jesus wouldn't wait any longer, and so He revealed Himself to Paul that day. I hope this helps! Love in Christ, Mark |
