A.T. Robertson Commentary Acts 9:33

"And there he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had kept his bed eight years; for he was palsied." — Acts 9:33 (ASV)

Aenias (Αινεαν). Old Greek name and so probably a Hellenistic Jew. He was apparently a disciple already (the saint, verse 32). Luke the physician notes that he had been bed ridden for eight years. See on 5:15 for "bed" (κραβαττου) and 8:7; Luke 5:18 for "paralyzed" (παραλελυμενος, perfect passive participle of παραλυω with ην, periphrastic past perfect passive).
