After his encounter<\/a> with the resurrected (and ascended) Jesus on the road to Damascus, after Ananias healed his blindness, after he was baptized and received the gift of the Holy Spirit, Saul (also known as Paul) stayed with the disciples in Damascus for several days<\/em>, and immediately he began to proclaim Jesus in the synagogues, saying, \u201cThis man is the Son of God.\u201d<\/em>1<\/sup><\/a> \u00a0<\/em>This surprised a lot of people, especially those who had commissioned him to arrest any in Damascus who said such things.\u00a0 But Saul became more and more capable, and was causing consternation<\/em>2<\/sup><\/a> among the Jews who lived in Damascus by proving that Jesus is the Christ<\/em>,3<\/sup><\/a> from the Hebrew scripture.<\/p>\n

In other words, Saul publicly refuted the religious authorities with the source of their authority, the written words of God.\u00a0 Those authorities wanted Saul dead.\u00a0 With some help and a basket, Saul escaped from Damascus and set out for Jerusalem (Acts 9:26-30 NET).<\/p>\n

When he4<\/sup><\/a> <\/em>arrived in Jerusalem, he attempted5<\/sup><\/a> <\/em>to associate with the disciples, and they were all afraid of him, because they did not believe that he was a disciple. \u00a0But Barnabas took Saul, brought him to the apostles, and related to them how he had seen the Lord on the road, that the Lord had spoken to him, and how in Damascus he had spoken out boldly in the name of Jesus. \u00a0So he was staying with them, associating openly with them in6<\/sup><\/a> <\/em>Jerusalem, speaking7<\/sup><\/a> <\/em>out boldly in the name of the Lord.8<\/sup><\/a> <\/em>\u00a0He was speaking and debating with the Greek-speaking Jews, but they were trying to kill him. \u00a0When the brothers found out about this, they brought him down to Caesarea and sent him away to Tarsus.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Paul\u2019s (Saul\u2019s) own account of events adds some detail and shades the meaning of some of Luke\u2019s (the author of Acts) account (Galatians 1:11-17 NET).<\/p>\n

Now I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel I preached is not of human origin. \u00a0For I did not receive it or learn it from any human source; instead I received it by a revelation of Jesus Christ. \u00a0For you have heard of my former way of life in Judaism, how I was savagely persecuting the church of God and trying to destroy it. \u00a0I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my contemporaries in my nation, and was extremely zealous (\u03b6\u03b7\u03bb\u03c9\u03c4\u03ae\u03c2<\/a>) <\/em>for the traditions of my ancestors. \u00a0But when the one9<\/sup><\/a> <\/em>who set me apart from birth and called me by his grace was pleased to reveal his Son in me so that I could preach him among the Gentiles, I did not go to ask advice from any human being, nor did I go up to Jerusalem to see those who were apostles before me, but10<\/sup><\/a> <\/em>right away I departed to Arabia, and then returned to Damascus.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Saul, according to Paul, went into the desert before he stayed several days<\/em> in Damascus.\u00a0 Perhaps I am reading too much into the phrase right away I departed to Arabia<\/em>, but I like the idea that Saul was not quite so capable to turn on a dime as Luke portrayed him.\u00a0 I think he had some genuine confusion about what had transpired, and he went off alone into the desert to sort some things out with God.\u00a0 I think Saul\u2019s faith in the traditions of his ancestors was sincere, and that from Saul\u2019s perspective Jesus blindsided him on the road to Damascus.<\/p>\n

There was a clause in Acts 9:5 (Table<\/a>) in the King James translation of the Bible.\u00a0 Jesus said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks <\/em>(\u03ba\u03ad\u03bd\u03c4\u03c1\u03b1<\/a>, a form of \u03ba\u03ad\u03bd\u03c4\u03c1\u03bf\u03bd<\/a>).\u00a0 It gave me the impression that Jesus had tried many other more subtle means to reach Saul (the pricks<\/em> or goads<\/em>), but finally decided that enough was enough and appeared bodily to him.\u00a0 This clause, however, has been removed from most contemporary translations of the Bible (See: Acts 26:14 NET<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Paul\u2019s account of the early days of Saul\u2019s conversion continued (Galatians 1:18-24 NET):<\/p>\n

Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Cephas11<\/sup><\/a> <\/em>and get information from him, and I stayed with him fifteen days. \u00a0But I saw none of the other apostles except James the Lord\u2019s brother. \u00a0I assure you that, before God, I am not lying about what I am writing to you! \u00a0Afterward I went to the regions of Syria and Cilicia. \u00a0But I was personally unknown to the churches of Judea that are in Christ. \u00a0They were only hearing, \u201cThe one who once persecuted us is now proclaiming the good news of the faith he once tried to destroy.\u201d \u00a0So they glorified God because of me.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Luke\u2019s account provides indirect confirmation of Paul\u2019s account in that Saul was apparently not aware of the Jerusalem insider elites\u2019 perspective that he was sent home to Tarsus to avoid more conflict with the religious authorities.\u00a0 Be that as it may, after Saul was sent home, the church<\/em>12<\/sup><\/a> throughout Judea, Galilee, and Samaria experienced<\/em>13<\/sup><\/a> peace and thus was strengthened<\/em>.14<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n

When Stephen was stoned to death a great persecution began against the church in Jerusalem<\/em>.15<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0 Now those who had been scattered because of the persecution that took place over Stephen went as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch <\/em>[in Syria], speaking the message to no one but Jews. \u00a0But there were some men from Cyprus and Cyrene among them who came<\/em>16<\/sup><\/a> to Antioch and<\/em>17<\/sup><\/a> began to speak to the Greeks<\/em> (\u1f19\u03bb\u03bb\u03b7\u03bd\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u1f70\u03c2<\/a>, a form of \u1f19\u03bb\u03bb\u03b7\u03bd\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03ae\u03c2<\/a>) too, proclaiming the good news of the Lord Jesus<\/em>.18<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a>According to Strong\u2019s Concordance<\/a> these\u00a0\u1f19\u03bb\u03bb\u03b7\u03bd\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u1f70\u03c2 (a form of \u1f19\u03bb\u03bb\u03b7\u03bd\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03ae\u03c2) were also Jews.\u00a0 According to the note (50<\/a>) in the NET, \u201cThe statement that some men from Cyprus and Cyrene\u2026began to speak to the Greeks<\/em> shows that Peter\u2019s experience of reaching out to the Gentiles was not unique.\u201d\u00a0 Whether they preached to Gentiles or Jews who lived like Gentiles, The hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number who<\/em>19<\/sup><\/a> believed turned to the Lord<\/em>.20<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n

The leaders in Jerusalem heard about it and sent Barnabas to Antioch.\u00a0 Barnabas witnessed what was going on there, saw the grace of<\/em>21<\/sup><\/a> God\u2026rejoiced and encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with devoted hearts<\/em>.22<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0 Then Barnabas<\/em>23<\/sup><\/a> departed for Tarsus to look for Saul, and when he found him,<\/em>24<\/sup><\/a> he brought him<\/em>25<\/sup><\/a> to Antioch.\u00a0 So for a<\/em>26<\/sup><\/a> whole year Barnabas and Saul met with<\/em>27<\/sup><\/a> the church and taught a significant number of people<\/em>.28<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n

Later Barnabas and Saul were sent to Jerusalem with financial relief gathered in Antioch for an impending famine prophesied by a prophet named Agabus (Acts 11:27-30<\/a>).\u00a0 If one reads a Bible published before, say, the 1980\u2019s Barnabas and Saul returned from<\/em> Jerusalem with John Mark.\u00a0 But most Bibles published after that time read something like this (Acts 12:25 NET):<\/p>\n

So Barnabas and Saul returned to<\/span><\/strong>29<\/sup><\/a> <\/em>Jerusalem when they had completed (\u03c0\u03bb\u03b7\u03c1\u03ce\u03c3\u03b1\u03bd\u03c4\u03b5\u03c2<\/a>, a form of \u03c0\u03bb\u03b7\u03c1\u03cc\u03c9<\/a>) <\/em>their mission (\u03b4\u03b9\u03b1\u03ba\u03bf\u03bd\u03af\u03b1\u03bd<\/a>, a form of \u03b4\u03b9\u03b1\u03ba\u03bf\u03bd\u03af\u03b1<\/a>), <\/em>bringing30<\/sup><\/a> <\/em>along with them John Mark.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The note (85<\/a>) explaining this change is in a footnote below.31<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0 I\u2019ll try to summarize and explain why I\u2019m rejecting the change for the time being.\u00a0 Different Greek manuscripts have different words here, primarily \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2<\/a>, \u1f00\u03c0\u03cc<\/a> and \u1f10\u03be<\/a>.\u00a0 The translators\u2019 quest to find the original<\/em> by organizing texts in a presumed chronology of copyists\u2019 errors is not unlike the study of evolutionary changes to the human genome. The people who do this obviously have a lot of faith in their methods.\u00a0 My faith in this case leads me to reject their methods and stick with the more obvious meaning of the narrative.<\/p>\n

I tried the idea that perhaps Luke meant that Barnabas and Saul did not leave for Jerusalem with the money they had collected until after they finished their first missionary journey.\u00a0 But the mission<\/em> (\u03b4\u03b9\u03b1\u03ba\u03bf\u03bd\u03af\u03b1\u03bd, a form of \u03b4\u03b9\u03b1\u03ba\u03bf\u03bd\u03af\u03b1) they completed<\/em> (\u03c0\u03bb\u03b7\u03c1\u03ce\u03c3\u03b1\u03bd\u03c4\u03b5\u03c2, a form of \u03c0\u03bb\u03b7\u03c1\u03cc\u03c9) in Acts 12:25 (NET)<\/a> seems to have been the relief<\/em> (\u03b4\u03b9\u03b1\u03ba\u03bf\u03bd\u03af\u03b1\u03bd, a form of \u03b4\u03b9\u03b1\u03ba\u03bf\u03bd\u03af\u03b1) that was gathered in Acts 11:29 (NET)<\/a>, rather than the work<\/em> (\u1f14\u03c1\u03b3\u03bf\u03bd<\/a>) the Holy Spirit assigned them (Acts 13:2 NET<\/a>) that became known as their first missionary journey.\u00a0 And that journey ends in the narrative with, From there<\/em> [Attalia] they sailed back to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work<\/em> (\u1f14\u03c1\u03b3\u03bf\u03bd) they had now completed<\/em> (\u1f10\u03c0\u03bb\u03ae\u03c1\u03c9\u03c3\u03b1\u03bd<\/a>, another form of \u03c0\u03bb\u03b7\u03c1\u03cc\u03c9).32<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0 So I decided that Luke probably meant something more like what the Bible used to say.<\/p>\n

I appreciate the footnote however.\u00a0 It gave me the opportunity to make that decision with the Holy Spirit (unlike Acts 9:5 where an entire clause vanished without comment).\u00a0 This is a decision I can live with when I give my account.33<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0 For the moment the opposite account (\u03bb\u03cc\u03b3\u03bf\u03bd<\/a>, a form of \u03bb\u03cc\u03b3\u03bf\u03c2<\/a>) sounds really shaky to me.\u00a0 It goes something like this:\u00a0 \u201cWell, you see, there were these guys\u2026Well, no, I didn\u2019t know them.\u00a0 They were guys, you see, guys that had a reputation for knowing this kind of stuff\u2026Well, no, it didn\u2019t make any sense to me, but these are the guys, man.\u00a0 Ya\u2019 gotta believe the guys, don\u2019t ya\u2019?\u201d<\/p>\n

So for my purposes here, I\u2019ll stick with from<\/em> Jerusalem even as I acknowledge that it is contrary to what the scripture says\u2014currently.<\/p>\n

After Barnabas and Saul returned from<\/em> their relief mission to Jerusalem, the Holy Spirit<\/a> said, \u201cSet apart for me Barnabas<\/em>34<\/sup><\/a> and Saul<\/em>35<\/sup><\/a> for the work <\/em>(\u1f14\u03c1\u03b3\u03bf\u03bd) to which I have called them.\u201d \u00a0Then, after they had fasted and prayed and placed their hands on them, they sent them off<\/em>.36<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0 Now they also had John as their assistant<\/em>,37<\/sup><\/a> the man who returned with them from <\/em>Jerusalem to Antioch.<\/p>\n

31<\/sup><\/a> There are a number of variants at this point in the text: \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 (eis, \u201cto\u201d) in \u05d0 B \u00cf sams<\/sup> syhmg<\/sup>; \u1f00\u03c0\u03cc (apo, \u201cfrom\u201d) in D E \u03a8 36 323 453 614 1175 al<\/em>; \u1f10\u03be (ex, \u201cfrom\u201d) in \u00cc74<\/sup> A 33 945 1739 al<\/em>; \u1f10\u03be \u1fbf\u0399\u03b5\u03c1\u03bf\u03c5\u03c3\u03b1\u03bb\u03ae\u03bc \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 \u1fbf\u0391\u03bd\u03c4\u03b9\u03cc\u03c7\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd (ex Ierousalhm ei” Antioceian, \u201cfrom Jerusalem to Antioch\u201d) in {a few later manuscripts and part of the Itala}. A decision on this problem is very difficult, but for several reasons \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 can be preferred. It is the most difficult reading by far in light of the context, since Paul and Barnabas were going to Jerusalem in 11:30. It is found in better witnesses, \u05d0 and B being very strong evidence. The other readings, \u1f10\u03be and \u1f00\u03c0\u03cc, are different from \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 yet bear essentially the same meaning as each other; this seems to suggest that scribes had problems with \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 and tried to choose an acceptable revision. If \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 is the earliest reading, \u1f00\u03c0\u03cc may be a clarification of \u1f10\u03be, and \u1f10\u03be could have arisen through confusion of letters. Or \u1f10\u03be and \u1f00\u03c0\u03cc could both have independently arisen from \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 as a more acceptable preposition. Despite such arguments, however, the case for \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 is not airtight: either \u1f10\u03be or \u1f00\u03c0\u03cc could be preferred on other lines of reasoning. The reading \u1f10\u03be enjoys the earliest support, and \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 could have arisen through the same confusion of letters mentioned above. The immediate and wider context seems to mitigate against \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 as the original reading: The aorist participle \u03c0\u03bb\u03b7\u03c1\u03ce\u03c3\u03b1\u03bd\u03c4\u03b5\u03c2 (plhrwsante”, \u201cwhen they had completed\u201d) seems to signal the end of the mission to Jerusalem with the famine relief, so it would make sense in the context for the team to be coming from<\/em> Jerusalem (to Antioch) rather than to<\/em> Jerusalem, and 13:1 certainly presents the scene at Antioch. The later addition \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 \u1fbf\u0391\u03bd\u03c4\u03b9\u03cc\u03c7\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd after \u1fbf\u0399\u03b5\u03c1\u03bf\u03c5\u03c3\u03b1\u03bb\u03ae\u03bc in some mss seems to be a clarification in light of 13:1 (notice that some of the mss that read \u1f10\u03be add \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 \u1fbf\u0391\u03bd\u03c4\u03b9\u03cc\u03c7\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd [945 1739], and some that read \u1f00\u03c0\u03cc also add \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 \u1fbf\u0391\u03bd\u03c4\u03b9\u03cc\u03c7\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1\u03bd [E 323 1175]). Thus, the idea of spatial separation from Jerusalem is strongly implied by the context. This problem is so difficult that some scholars resort to conjectural emendation to determine the original reading. All in all, the reading \u03b5\u1f30\u03c2 should be preferred as original, recognizing that there is a good measure of uncertainty with this solution.
