23 Later some of them made plans to kill Saul,
24 but he found out about it. He learnt that they were guarding the gates of the city day and night in order to kill him.
25 Then one night his followers let him down over the city wall in a large basket.
26 When Saul arrived in Jerusalem, he tried to join the followers. But they were all afraid of him, because they did not believe he was a true follower.
27 Then Barnabas helped him by taking him to the apostles. He explained how Saul had seen the Lord and how the Lord had spoken to him. Barnabas also said that when Saul was in Damascus, he had spoken bravely in the name of Jesus.
28 Saul moved about freely with the followers in Jerusalem and told everyone about the Lord.
29 He was always arguing with the Jews who spoke Greek, and so they tried to kill him.
