Yep, Paul got gobsmacked off his high horse. Do you think a mild concussion could have caused his temporary blindness?

:-)

Naw, I think it was more of a spiritual gobsmackation.

The bright light described was the illumination of the Glory of God like Moses got a glimpse of when he got the 10 commandments.

So bright it blinded Paul/Saul.

I have some theater lights which are so bright you don’t want to have your eyes open towards them, I can only imagine the intensity of the brightness of the Glory of God.

But then he may have had a physical concussion too I would have to concede.
