9:20 Saul starts preaching in Damascus
Then Saul stayed several days with the believers in Damascus. 20 He went straight into the Jewish meeting halls and started proclaiming that Yeshua is God’s son.
21 The hearers were all amazed, saying, “Isn’t this the guy that persecuted the ones following that Yeshua in Yerushalem, and even came to Damascus to arrest them here and take them back to the chief priests?”
22 But Saul was growing stronger[fn] and he was confounding the Jews living in Damascus as he taught them that Yeshua is the promised messiah.
23 [ref]After several days, the religious Jews plotted together to kill him, 24 but Saul found out about their plan. Those Jews were also watching the city exits so they could kill him if he tried leaving, 25 but his supporters took him to the city wall at night time and lowered him down in a basket.
9:22 It’s not clear here whether it means that Saul was growing physically stronger, or that his preaching and debating skills were improving.
9:23-25: 2Cor 11:32-33.
