Acts 26:12-13

Connected with this, I traveled to Damascus by the authority of the chief priests. At noon, O King, I saw a light brighter than the sun coming from heaven that shone around me and my companions.
What is its immediate context?
Paul has been arrested (21:33) upon his return to Jerusalem after his third missionary journey. He is giving his defense to King Agrippa and recounting his conversion story after appealing to Caesar as a Roman citizen, before being taken to Rome. Also told by Luke (9:1-19) and the first time by Paul before the Jewish crowd (22:3-16).
How Acts 26:12-13 is applied across Bible answers
Was Saul saved on the road to Damascus?
Paul's second personal account, this time before King Agrippa (verses 12-18). This account details more of what Jesus told him when he was blinded on the road. It says nothing of what happened in Damascus, so it isn't terribly relevant for this question specifically.
