Acts 919b-21 (NLT)19bSaul stayed with the
believers in Damascus for a few days. 20 And
immediately he began preaching about Jesus in the
synagogues, saying, He is indeed the Son of
God! 21 All who heard him were amazed. Isnt
this the same man who persecuted Jesus followers
with such devastation in Jerusalem? they asked.
And we understand that he came here to arrest
them and take them in chains to the leading
priests.
