Saint Paul the Apostle

The Pharisee who became the Apostle to the Nations

Sixteen episodes on the life of Saul of Tarsus, strict Pharisee who persecuted the first Christians and was struck down by a light on the road to Damascus. They cover sixty-two years: from his birth in Tarsus to his training under Gamaliel, from the martyrdom of Stephen to his conversion, from three years in the Arabian desert to the first baptism of a Roman in Cyprus. From the stoning at Lystra to the Council of Jerusalem, from the vision of Macedonia to the earthquake at Philippi, from the Areopagus of Athens to the tribunal of Gallio in Corinth. From three years in Ephesus to shipwreck on Malta, from house arrest in Rome to beheading on the Via Ostiense, at the place called Three Fountains. The life of the greatest traveler of the New Testament, writer of thirteen letters that still today make up half of the Christian Bible.
