Pauls Background and Early Years in the Sunday School Lesson
The text reviews Pauls birth in Tarsus as a Roman citizen by birth, his Jewish training and Pharisee status, and his early zeal against Christians. It notes his conversion on the road to Damascus, his training under Gamaliel, and his subsequent view that knowing Christ surpasses all prior Jewish credentials. It cites Romans teachings and Philippians contrasts to illustrate his transformation and commitment to the gospel.
