Detailed explanation-1: -As he neared Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” “Who are you, Lord?” Saul asked. “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting, ‘’ he replied.
Detailed explanation-2: -Before encountering the risen Jesus Christ on the road to Damascus, Paul (or more precisely Saul as he was known at the time) was large, in charge, and very much in control of his world.
