In context

3“I am a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but raised in this city. I was educated at the feet of Gamaliel in strict conformity to the law of our fathers. I was just as zealous for God as any of you are today.

4I persecuted this Way even to the death, detaining both men and women and throwing them into prison,

5As the high priest and the whole Council can testify about me. I even obtained letters from them to their brothers in Damascus, and I was on my way to apprehend these people and bring them to Jerusalem to be punished.

6About noon as I was approaching Damascus, suddenly a bright light from heaven flashed around me.

7I fell to the ground and heard a voice say to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?’
