Acts 9:21 in Context — Acts 9
19 E ao comer, ele se fortaleceu. E Saulo ficou alguns dias com os discípulos [que estavam] em Damasco.
20 E logo nas sinagogas pregava a Cristo, [dizendo] que aquele era o Filho de Deus.
21 E todos os que o ouviam ficavam admirados, e diziam: Não é este aquele que em Jerusalém tentava destruir aos que invocavam este nome? E [não foi] para isso [que] ele veio aqui, para os levar presos aos chefes dos sacerdotes?
22 Mas Saulo se esforçava muito mais, e confundia aos judeus que habitavam em Damasco, provando que aquele era o Cristo.
23 E passados vários dias, os judeus tiveram conselho entre si para o matarem.
