Acts 9

Saul, en route to Damascus to persecute believers, encounters Iēsous (Jesus) in a blinding light, falls to the ground, and hears, 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?' leading to his temporary blindness for three days.[1][2][3] The Lord instructs Ananias in a vision to restore Saul's sight; despite hesitation, Ananias obeys, Saul receives sight, is filled with the Holy Spirit, baptized, and begins proclaiming Iēsous as the Son of God, though later opposed by Hellenistic Jews who plot his murder, prompting his escape to Jerusalem where Barnabas vouches for him.[1][2][3][6]
