Acts 9:26-31 - Saul In Jerusalem
26 when Saul was come to Jerusalem, he try'd to associate himself with the disciples: but they were all afraid of him, and could not be persuaded that he was a disciple. 27 thereupon Barnabas took him with him to the apostles, and related to them how the Lord had appear'd to him on his journey, and had spoken to him, and how publickly Saul had preach'd at Damascus in the name of Jesus. 28 then he convers'd freely with the apostles at Jerusalem: 29 and he openly preach'd in the name of the Lord Jesus, and disputed against the Hellenists, who therefore plotted against his life: 30 which when the brethren knew, they brought him down to Cesarea, and sent him away to Tarsus.
31 Then the churches in all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria, were unmolested and establish'd, and by their religious conduct, and the assistance of the holy spirit, grew more extensive.
