According to Luke, who travelled with Saul and wrote the book of Acts in the New Testament, in Acts 22 Saul addressed Jews and gave his defense for following Christ. Saul, also known a s Paul, was told by the risen Jesus that he would be the messenger to the Gentiles. Judaism was for the Jews and those who wished to be proselyted into the Jewish nation, but the prophets of Judaism told of a time when the Gentiles would be accepted by God fulfilling the promise made to Abraham, father of the Jews, that through his seed all nations would be blessed (Genesis 22:18).
