There were two prominent Sauls in The Bible, and yes, both of them were Hebrew.
The term Hebrew was first applied to Abraham(Genesis 14:13), possibly in reference to his being a descendant of Eber (a gt grandson of Shem, Noah's son).
Eventually the term Hebrew, Jew and Israelite came to mean the same(1Samuel 13:3-7)(Jeremiah 34:8, 9, 13, 14). Therefore:
**King Saul, was the first King of Israel (in the line of Benjamin), so was obviously a Hebrew.
**Saul of Tarsus, who became the Apostle Paul, was a Jewish Pharisee (Philippians 3:4-5;Acts 21:38-39) also from the tribe of Benjamin, before he became a Christian, so was also a Hebrew.
