18 Then three years later I went to Jerusalem to visit with Peter, and I stayed with him fifteen days.
19 But I saw no other emissaries except Jacob, the Lord’s brother.
20 (In what I’m writing you, before God, I do not lie.)
21 Then I went to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
22 But I was personally unknown to Messiah’s communities of Judea;
23 they only kept hearing, “The one who once persecuted us now proclaims the Good News he once tried to destroy!”
24 So they were praising God because of me.
