Greek in
me, in order bthat I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately consult with anyone;
Greek with flesh and blood
17nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.

18Then dafter three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Cephas and remained with him fifteen days. 19But I saw none of the other apostles except James ethe Lord’s brother. 20(In what I am writing to you, fbefore God, I do not lie!) 21 gThen I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia. 22And I was still unknown in person to hthe churches of Judea that are in Christ. 23They only were hearing it said, “He who used to persecute us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.” 24And they glorified God because of me.
