In 1 Corinthians, Paul says that Jesus appeared to Cephas, then the twelve, then more than 500, then James, then all the apostles, and last of all to to Paul. This account predates the gospels, and there seem to be twelve, rather than eleven, faithful disciples. It also seems as if the special group known as "the twelve" is in some way different to and separate from "all the apostles".

Who were the first two people to see Christ after He rose from the dead?

In 1 Corinthians, Paul says that Jesus was seen by Cephas (Peter), then the twelve, then by more than 500, most of whom were still alive, then by James and all the apostles, and finally by himself. In this passage, Paul implies that the appearances were all of the same nature, with no suggestion that the appearances to Cephas, the twelve, James or the apostles were somehow more real than the spiritual appearance he experienced. Certainly Paul was claiming to have seen Jesus after his ascension, but he also seems to have believed that the others only saw Jesus after his ascension, as well.Acts of the Apostles also describes Stephen as claiming to see both Jesus and God seated in heaven above him.

Did paul ever meet meet Jesus?

A:Paul certainly did not meet Jesus in the flesh, but at 1 Corinthians 15:3-8, he said that Jesus died and was buried, rose again according to the scriptures, then was seen by Cephas, then the twelve, then by more than 500, most of whom were still alive, then by James and all the apostles, and finally by himself. Here Paul implied that the appearances were all of the same nature, with no suggestion that any of the appearances to Cephas, the twelve, James or the apostles were somehow more real than the appearance he experienced. Nevertheless, it is clear from his account that this was only a spiritual experience, perhaps in a dream or vision. Acts of the Apostles gives three separate accounts of Paul meeting Jesus on the road to Damascus. However, the accounts actually appear to have been based on the ancient play of Euripedes called the Bacchae rather than a real event in Paul's life. This alone would be enough to cast serious doubts on the explanation in Acts, but there are so many contradictions to Paul's own account that the story of meeting Jesus on the road to Damascus is unlikely to have been true.A:No Paul never met jesus, as the christian movement started after Jesus died. A:Paul met Jesus on the road to Damascus. Acts 9:3ff
