Arabia, Damascus, Jerusalem, Judea, Syria, Cilicia, and Galatia locate Paul’s early Christian ministry across the eastern Roman world. In this context, his limited contact with Jerusalem’s churches and later work in Syria and Cilicia supports his claim that the Judean believers glorified God because of his conversion, not because he had been instructed by them.
