Contextual Overview
3 then he said, I am a Jew, a native of Tarsus in Cilicia, but had my education in this city: at the feet of Gamaliel I was instructed in the law, and in the exact decisions of our fathers, and was as religiously zealous as you are at this time. 4 for I persecuted this sect even to death, throwing them into chains and prisons both men and women: 5 this the high-priest and the senate know too well: from them I receiv'd my warrant directed to the Jews of Damascus, where I went, to bring the converts there in chains to Jerusalem, in order to be punished. 6 as I was upon the road, advanc'd near Damascus, about mid-day, all of a sudden a great light from heaven broke all around me. 7 I fell to the ground, and heard a voice pronounce these words, "Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?" 8 I answered, who art thou, Lord? it answered, "I am Jesus the Nazarene whom thou dost persecute." 9 the company actually saw the light, but did not hear the voice of him that spoke to me. 10 then I said, Lord, what must I do? and the Lord answer'd, arise, go to Damascus; there you will be inform'd what you are to do. 11 but as I had lost the use of my eyes by the splendor of that light, I was led by the hand to Damascus, by those who were with me. 12 there one Ananias a religious observer of the law, who had the good word of all the Jews in that place, came to see me,

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they that were with me saw indeed the light,.... For it shone about them, as well as Saul:
and were afraid; the Alexandrian copy, the Vulgate Latin, and Syriac versions, have not this clause; but it stands in the Arabic and Ethiopic versions; the suddenness, greatness, and extraordinariness of the light surprised them, for it was even miraculous:
but they heard not the voice of him that spake to me: they heard the voice of Saul, but not the voice of Christ; at least they did not hear it so as to understand it; :-.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See the notes on Acts 9:3-7.
Acts 22:6
As I made my journey - As I was on my journey.
About noon - Acts 26:13, “at mid-day.” This circumstance is omitted by Luke in his account in Acts 9:0: Paul mentions it as being the more remarkable since it occurred at mid-day, to show that he was not deluded by any meteoric or natural appearances, which usually occur at night.
Acts 22:11
The glory of that light - The splendor, the intense brilliancy of the light. See this and its effects explained in the notes on Acts 9:8.
