A:Jesus is generally believed to have been crucified between 30 and 33 CE. Paul's conversion must have been no later than the early thirties, in other words very soon after the crucifixion.

One of the paradoxes of the Book of Acts is that Actssays that Paul was educated in Jerusalem by Gamaliel I, who flourished in Jerusalem around 20-50. On the other hand, as Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) says, Paul's letters do not suggest that Paul had seen Jesus during the public ministry or at the crucifixion, and so implicitly cast doubt on Paul's continuous presence in Jerusalem in the years 26-30/33. Paul seems unaware that Jesus lived and died in Palestine during his own lifetime.

A:Yes, he did. The New Testament introduces Saul of Tarsus (later known as the Apostle Paul) as a "young man" at the stoning of Stephen (Acts 7:58), which took place not long after Jesus' ascension.

What is the correct grammar - Apostle Paul or apostle Paul?

OpinionI would say Apostle Paul wherever I use 'Apostle' as a title, in the same way as I would say Mr Smith, with 'Mr' capitalised. Less frequently, I would write 'apostle' uncapitalised if I did not intend it as a title, for example where 'apostle' is the subject of the sentence, and Paul is addressed. Use capitals to be on the safe side.


Where in the Bible is Apostle Paul aka Saul first mentioned?

The first mention of Saul (aka Paul) is found at Acts 7:58.Actually, Paul is mentioned in the last book of John. Jesus Christ tells Peter that he will stretch forth his hand and another shall take him where he would not. He is telling Peter that he will go with Paul and die for him, finally glorifying Jesus (there is no greater love than he who dies for his brethren, as Jesus did) as he escaped death twice, once with the Centurion, and once in the Garden when he denied him 3 times.

No, Paul and Jesus never met while Jesus was still alive. It was after Jesus rose from the dead that Jesus appeared to Paul (See 1 Corinthians 15:8). While some people interpret Paul as having a vision on the road to Damascus (Acts 9 1-6), Paul himself insisted that Jesus appeared to him in his resurrected person in his written word (See 1 Corinthians 15:8).

What bible verse does it say Paul never meet Jesus?

There is no Bible verse that says that, because it is not true - Paul did meet Jesus on the road to Damascus. Acts 9:1-8Besides that, Paul could not be an apostle, had he never met Jesus, because his preaching would not have the same authority. Galatians 1:11-12 "But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man, for I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ"
