Paul's union with Christ had occurred at Damascus, and so it was fitting that his persecution in Christ should originate in the same place. Jesus had assured Paul that his witness to Him would bring suffering, and very soon he found himself being rescued by the very people he had come to Damascus to arrest. Now, after three years, Paul was at last returning to Jerusalem, but not with Christ's people in bonds as he had intended. Rather, in a remarkable irony, he was returning in bonds himself - not in bonds because of Christ, but as a bondslave of Christ. Paul had boldly testified of Christ in Damascus, and he would do so in Jerusalem. In Damascus he had provoked the ire of his countrymen; in Jerusalem, it would be his closest colleagues.
