Acts 9:28 In-Context

26 When Saul came to Jerusalem, he tried to join the believers. But they were all afraid of him. They didn't believe he was really one of Jesus' followers.

27 But Barnabas took him to the apostles. He told them about Saul's journey. He said that Saul had seen the Lord. He told how the Lord had spoken to Saul. Barnabas also said that Saul had preached without fear in Jesus' name in Damascus.

28 So Saul stayed with the believers. He moved about freely in Jerusalem. He spoke boldly in the Lord's name.

29 He talked and argued with Jews who followed Greek practices. But they tried to kill him.

30 The other believers heard about this. They took Saul down to Caesarea. From there they sent him off to Tarsus.
