After this, Saul returned to Damascus (GAL 1:17) and spent a few days with the disciples. He immediately preached in the synagogues that Christ was the Son of God. They were all amazed who heard these things, and said that is not this the one who came from Jerusalem to bind the Christians to take them back to Jerusalem. Saul increased in strength more and more and confounded the Jews who dwelt at Damascus and taught that Jesus was the Christ. (ACT 9:19-22) He first preached the gospel to the Jews who lived in Damascus. (ACT 26:20)
