16 to reveal his Son to me, so that I might preach the Good News about him to the Gentiles, I did not go to anyone for advice,
17 nor did I go to Jerusalem to see those who were apostles before me. Instead, I went at once to Arabia, and then I returned to Damascus.
18 It was three years later that I went to Jerusalem to obtain information from Peter, and I stayed with him for two weeks.
19 I did not see any other apostle except James, the Lord's brother.
20 What I write is true. God knows that I am not lying!
21 Afterwards I went to places in Syria and Cilicia.
22 At that time the members of the churches in Judea did not know me personally.
