After his conversion on the Damascus road, it is written in (Acts 9:1-19) that he stayed in Damascus preaching for a number of days till a Jewish plot to kill him was discovered. (Acts 9:23-24) He was then let down through an opening in the wall one night by his disciples in a large basket. (Acts 9:25)
Then, it says in the next verse (26) that he then came to Jerusalem.
However, in Gal. 1:17-18 it is written that after his Damascus road conversion that "I did not go up to Jerusalem to those that were Apostles before me; but I went away to Arabia, and returned once more to Damascus. Then 3 years later I went up to Jerusalem to become acquainted with Cephas, and stayed with him 15 days."
Anyone have any answers for this?
