聖德範的臉上如同天使般閃耀，因為他正瞻仰天主的榮耀。

他從這瞻仰中，詳細講述了救贖的歷史，以及以色列人中一些人的否定態度。這種否定態度貫穿了他們的歷史。

最後，他分享了自己的異象：他看到耶穌站在天主的右邊。或許他所指的是聖詠第109（110）篇，先知說：「天主上主，我的主君王正站在袮的右邊」。”

正如聖詠所說的，站在那裡的耶穌，就是那將戰勝所有仇敵的救主。

或許，這就是聽眾無法接受德範宣告他們失敗的話語，並用石頭砸他的原因。 「我們了解天主的一切。我們是勝利者，我們不是他的敵人。你褻瀆我們，所以我們殺你。」

德範的遺言與耶穌的遺言如出一轍。他的面容，他的心都與主同在，他就像一位天使，隨時準備站在主面前，服事主。

The face of Steven shines like the face of an angel because he contemplates the Glory of God.

From that contemplation he speaks at length about the history of salvation and the negative answer of some in the people of Israel. Such a negative attitude is always present throughout their history.

He concludes by sharing his vision: he contemplates Jesus standing at the right side of God. Perhaps he is referring to Psalm 109(110) where the prophet says: My master, o Lord, is standing at your right hand.

He is there as the one who will defeat all his enemies, as the Psalm says.

Perhaps, this is the reason why the listeners cannot accept Steven’s words, which announce their defeat, and stone him. We know everything about God. We are the ones who win, we are not his enemies. You are blaspheming us, therefore we kill you.

Steven last words are the same as Jesus’ words. His countenance, his heart is there, with the Lord, he is like an angel, standing ready in front of the Lord, at his service.
