How long after his conversion did Paul first go up to Jerusalem?
Paul first went up to Jerusalem approximately three years after his conversion. A three-year stint, likely in Arabia, preceded that first Jerusalem visit, where he met the Apostle Peter face to face. This was his first trip to Jerusalem after coming to faith.
Les explains that after a three-year stint, which he thinks was down in Arabia, Paul finally gets up to Jerusalem for the first time. There he is going to meet the Apostle Peter face to face. Les imagines that was quite a meeting, since they came from two totally different backgrounds, and he says the account will be carried on further in the next program.
