Exegesis
The core clause ouk egenomēn apeithēs {οὐκ ἐγενόμην ἀπειθὴς | ouk e-ge-NÓ-mēn a-pei-thḗs} combines the aorist middle of ginomai {γίνομαι | gí-no-mai} with a predicate adjective, literally “I did not become disobedient,” portraying Paul’s response to the vision as a decisive, completed stance rather than an ongoing process. The negation ouk precedes the verb, giving emphasis to the denial of disobedience.
In context — Acts 26:19
Therefore, O King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision .
