Did many people get angry when St. Paul preached God's word?
A:Yes. In 2 Corinthians chapter 11, Paul describes how he was beaten with rods. When he first went to Damascus, he was lowered down a wall in a basket to escape the governor, who was furious at him for converting Gentiles. Acts of the Apostles chapter 9, written some decades later, mirrors Paul's account, saying that when Paul first went to Damascus, he was lowered down a wall in a basket to escape the Jews, who were furious at him for converting Jews.
How did Paul get out of Damascus?
Acts 9:20-5 claims that after his sight was restored, Paul straightaway began to preach Christianity in the synagogues, until the Jews took counsel to kill him. Disciples helped him escape the wrath of the Jews by lowering him down by the wall in a basket. However, who these disciples were is not stated.In Paul's own version of events, the pagan governor of Damascus sought to arrest Paul, but he escaped the soldiers by being lowered in a basket from a window by the wall. The governor would not have been at all interested in an internal squabble amongst the Jews, so Paul must have been preaching to the Gentiles and converting many. Once again, Paul did not state who helped him.

Whose life was saved by being lowered over a wall in a basket?
A:We have two different accounts, both saving the apostle Paul from capture and possible death. In Paul's own version of events, Paul spent at least three years preaching in Damascus before the pagan governor of Damascus sought to arrest him but he escaped the soldiers by being lowered in a basket from a window by the wall (2 Corinthians 11:32-33). The governor would not have been at all interested in an internal squabble amongst the Jews, so Paul must have been preaching to the Gentiles and converting many.According to Acts of the Apostles, Paul straightaway began to preach Christianity in the synagogues after his sight was restored, until the Jews took counsel to kill him "after many days." The disciples helped him escape the wrath of the Jews by lowering him down by the wall in a basket (Acts 9:20-25). This was no doubt inspired by Paul's personal account, but in this account there was to be no preaching to the Gentiles until Peter persuaded the Jerusalem council to give its approval, a decision that Actsplaces well off into the future, so it had to be the Jews whom Paul offended, and they could not wait three years before acting.A:Saul of Tarsus (later known as the Apostle Paul).Acts 9:22-25 - But Saul increased all the more in strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt in Damascus, proving that this Jesus is the Christ. Now after many days were past, the Jews plotted to kill him. But their plot became known to Saul. And they watched the gates day and night, to kill him. Then the disciples took him by night and let him down through the wall in a large basket. [NKJV]
