What the Fathers say

Acts 16:33

Eastern Fathers

Theophylact of Ohrid

"Having taken them at that hour of the night, he washed their wounds." The jailer washed their wounds, but he himself was washed from his sins.

Western Saints

Bede

He washed their wounds, and he was baptized himself. A beautiful variety of events. Those whose wounds of injuries he washed, by them he lost his own wounds.
