We read: “Barnabas came to his aid and led him to the apostles, and he told them in detail how on the road he had seen the Lord,... and how in Damascus he had spoken boldly in the name of Jesus. ”
Kuidas Barnabas Paulust aitas? Apostlite tegude raamatus öeldakse: „Barnabas tuli talle appi, viis ta apostlite juurde ning jutustas neile üksikasjalikult, kuidas Saulus oli teel Isandat näinud... ning kuidas ta oli Damaskuses julgesti Jeesuse nimel rääkinud. ”
