Saul was given permission to go to Damascus by the high priest. He sought letters from the high priest to the synagogues in Damascus, authorizing him to arrest any followers of Jesus. This request was part of his mission to persecute Christians in that city before his dramatic conversion on the road to Damascus.

Who gave saul permission to go to damascus?

Saul did not need permission to go to Damascus as he could travel where ever he liked, but he did need permission from the High Priest to go to Damascus and arrest persons who were following "The Way", which was the expression used to mean following Jesus' teachings. The High Priest could have been one of three persons as we are not exactly sure of the date this happened. Caiaphas was nearing the end of his time in 34 A.D. and Jonathan Ben Hanan was High Priest in 36 A.D., with Theophilus being High Priest in 37 A.D. It was in this time frame that Saul was traveling to Damascus on this mission.

What reason did King Saul give David for why David could not go out to fight Goliath?

Saul didn't want David to go because he young and, in Saul's mind, inexperienced. In 1 Samuel 17:33 Saul says, "You are not able to go out against this Philistine and fight him; you are only a young man, and he has been a warrior from his youth."

What led to Saul's conversion?

In Acts chapter 9 it gives the account of Saul's conversion. Verse 4 said that he heard a voice ask him: "Saul why are you persecuting me?" The voice identified himself as Jesus and gave Saul specific instructions to go into the city of Damascus and from there it would be revealed to him what to do. Saul was stricken with blindness so he had to be led into the city. Jesus had appeared in a vision to one of his disciples, named Ananias, and instructed him to meet Saul. Once doing so, Ananias cured Saul of his blindness and filled him with Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit must have also helped him with his "spiritual blindness" because after staying some days with Ananias, he immediately started his preaching work.
