Acts 9:20-25 - Saul Proclaims Christ In Damascus
20 He lost no time in preaching throughout the synagogues that Jesus was the Son of God ??21 to the amazement of all his hearers, who said, "Is this not the man who in Jerusalem harried those who invoke this Name, the man who came here for the express purpose of carrying them all in chains to the high priests?"
22 Saul became more and more vigorous. He put the Jewish residents in Damascus to confusion by his proof that Jesus was the Christ;
23 and the Jews, after a number of days had elapsed, conspired to make away with him. 24 But their plot came to the ears of Saul, and, although they kept watch on the gates day and night in order to make away with him, 25 his disciples managed one night to let him down over the wall by lowering him in a basket.
