Hechos 9:26-30

Saul’s reception in Jerusalem 9:26-30

Luke concluded each of his narratives of the Samaritans’ conversion (Acts 8:4-25), Saul’s conversion (Acts 9:1-31), and Cornelius’ conversion (Acts 10:1 to Acts 11:18) with references to the mother church in Jerusalem. He evidently wanted to stress the fact that all these significant advances were part of one great plan that God orchestrated and not just independent occurrences (cf. Matthew 16:18; Acts 1:8).
