16 'And now what do you intend to do? Get up and receive Moshiach's tevilah of teshuva and wash away your averos (sins) by calling upon SHMO.' [VAYIKRA 8:6; TEHILLIM 51:2; YECHEZKEL 36:25; YOEL 3:5(2:32) ZECHARYAH 6:12]
17 "And it happened that after I had returned to Yerushalayim and as I was davening in the Beis Hamikdash, that I fell into a trance,
18 "And saw Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach saying to me, 'Hurry and get out quickly from Yerushalayim, because they will not receive your edut (testimony) concerning me.'
19 "And I said 'Adoni, they themselves have da'as that in every shul I was imprisoning and beating the ones with emunah in you.
20 'And when in al kiddush ha-Shem, the dahm of your eidus (witness) Stefanos was being poured out, I myself also had been standing by and agreeing and protecting the kaftans of the ones killing him.'
21 "And Moshiach said to me, 'Go! For I will send you out, far away to the Goyim.'
22 And they were listening to Rav Sha'ul up to the word "Goyim;" and then they lifted up their kol, saying, "Away with such a one from ha'aretz! He should not be allowed to live!"
