Apostlenes gjerninger 9,1

Saulus, som fortsatt truet og myrdet Herrens disipler, gikk til ypperstepresten,

2 og ba om brev til synagogene i Damaskus, slik at hvis han fant noen som tilhørte Veien, enten menn eller kvinner, kunne han føre dem bundet til Jerusalem.

3 Mens han reiste og nærmet seg Damaskus, skinte plutselig et lys fra himmelen rundt ham.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
