   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acts_of_the_Apostles

   The name "Acts of the Apostles" was first used by Irenaeus in the late 2nd century. It is not known whether this was an existing name for the book or one invented by Irenaeus; it does seem clear that it was not given by the author, as the word práxeis (deeds, acts) only appears once in the text (Acts 19:18) and there it refers not to the apostles but to deeds confessed by their followers.

   The men traveling with Saul stood there speechless; they heard the sound but did not see anyone. (Acts 9:7) My companions saw the light, but they did not understand the voice of him who was speaking to me. (Acts 22:9) Likewise the NET Bible and others. By translating φωνή and ἀκούω differently in each case, the contradiction is disguised.
