Where did Saul go right after recovering from the Damascus road experience?
Right after recovering from the Damascus road experience, Saul went to the synagogue of the Jews. From Ananias’s house he immediately preached Christ in the synagogues, still confining his preaching to the Jew. He proclaimed that Jesus was the Christ, the Son of God, Israel’s Messiah.
Les explains that after Saul got food and his sight was restored, he did not go uptown to the marketplace. Instead, straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues. He was still confining his preaching to the Jew, because nobody had told him anything different yet. Ananias knew Saul’s future mission to the Gentiles, but Saul did not yet understand it. He went immediately from the sight restoration after the trauma on the road to Damascus to the synagogue of the Jew. He did not preach Christ crucified, buried, and risen, because he had not heard that yet, no more than Peter had. What he preached was that Jesus was the Christ, that Christ is the Son of God, the Messiah of Israel.
And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.
