We have three different accounts of Paul’s unsupported claim of conversion. Two of them are similar, Acts 9:1-18, 22:1-15 (except the part about him being sent to the Gentiles, 22:21), but not the third account, Acts 26:10-19. In the first two stories, Paul specifically asked the Lord what he should do and the Lord told him to go to Damascus where he would be told all things. In the third story, however, Paul received full revelation on the spot. Which one is it Paul? Paul is caught in a lie (there will be more).
There exists a three-year discrepancy between Paul’s conversion and his trip to Jerusalem, and he admits to having little or no tutoring by the apostles (Galatians is the earlier of the two accounts). Interestingly enough, there’s a document in the Dead Sea Scrolls, Q40266, called ‘The Damascus Document’, written around the time of Saul/Paul’s trip to Arabia (wherein existed the Essene site of Qumran). It’s an excommunication document condemning an unidentified man; referred to as the ‘Lying Adversary, the Lying Spouter, the Tongue, the Scoffer’ who rejected the law in the midst of the whole congregation.
П.П. Пращам линкове, защото книгите не са ми под ръка в момента, когато ги получа, ще пиша повече.
I said: I long to learn the things that are, and comprehend their nature, and know God.
това са спекулации, няма никакво разминаване в свидетелствата на/за Св. Павел, просто първоначално е бил прозелит на книжниците и фарисеите докато още е бил неопитен юноша/младеж, и именно през онова време е бил подучен от тях да се противи на Христовата църква, но той не е участвал дълго време в гоненията против Исусовите светии, но само за малко, като после е станал един от Тях и е служил като Христов Апостол за много по-дълго време, отколкото (времето за което) е участвал някога в гонения срещу Христовите Светии
