The Lord is Jesus
Saul asks the glorious figure, "Who are you, Lord?" The answer, "I am Jesus whom you persecute," is a world-altering revelation. Commentators emphasize this as the pivotal moment where the divine Lord of heaven is identified as the very person Saul was trying to destroy. This direct encounter by "Divine power" (Matthew Henry) is the foundation of Paul's conversion and entire ministry.
