GOLDEN TEXT—If any Manis in Christ he is a new creature.-- • Cor. 5: s7, Time-SOnl's conversion, A, D. 35. Place — Damascus, the traditional place being about a mile from the city, outside the eastern gates. SAUL SEES A GREAT LIGHT But Saul, He.was named after the first king of Israel, and possessed some. of his characteristics; ttiart is, he was energetic, determined; a born leader of men, quick in aetian, cap- able of inspiring deep affection, and capable also of ernest devotion. 13e - fore his conversion . he ha& also the 'cruelty that degraded the first Saul. Under the name of Paul. fie: became the greatest man of the New Test- anietit, and in many respects, the great- est reatest Brian of the Bible and of all- time. He was the Moses of: Choi tiansty. Of Jewish descent, he was; born in Tarsus, a famous _cityin. the Roman province ofCilicia, at the northeast corner of the Mediterranean Tarsus possessed a notable university, and Paul's writings present: many eoistacts with• Greek learning; but after ob- taining the rudimentsof a fine ed- ucation in_hi's• hoine and in the sy- nagogue school, he was start by his pious parents: toJerusalem, where he was carefully trained to be rabbi, his principal, teacher being the famous Gamaliel. I•Id joined himself to the strictest of the Jewish sects, which was also the most fiercely patriotic, who were Christ's bitterest eniines throughout the Saviour's life and the chief agents in accomplishing his death on the cross. Yet breathing threatening and slaughter against.he disciples of the Lord. "Yet' implies that the persecution of the "Christians headed by Saul had continued fpr some time, probably .for several years. Saul had become apparently a member of the Sanhedrin, a "`man of wide and powerful influence. Went unto"'the high priest. As pre- siding officer in the Sanhedrin and head of the Jewish hierarchy, the high priest assumed authority in re- ligous matters over all -Jews, however far from Jerusalem they might live.. And asked of him letters to Dam- ascus. The choice of Damascus shows how far the Christians had fled and how thorough Saul meant to be. in persuing thent. The "letters"wers a _; commission, delegating to him the power of the Sanhedrin in the -matter. Upon the synagogue. Damascus had been involved in Jewish history from the begining, and at this time many Jews were living there. In Ne- ro's time ten thousand -Jews of Dam- ascus are said ,to have been massac- ured, and Josephus'declares that most of the women of the, city were pro- selytes to ro-selytes.'to Judaism. Many synagogu- es -were required for the worship of so large a body of believers. That if he founds any that were •Of the Way. "I am the Way," said Christ, and His followers often spoke of "the Way of truth," '"the Way of life." "The Way," therefore, was a natural anode of designating the Christian religion, and "inen of the Way" was one of the earliest designations of Christians. Whether men or women. 'There we- ll re many women among the early Christians, and the ,genius of Christ- ianity gave them greater influence and scope than 'did Judaism, Satil's ferocity is shown by his attacking wo- men as well as men, and committing them to the unutterably foul prisons of the times of even putting thein to death. He might bring thein' bound to Jerusalem. The Sanhedrin resery-. cd to •itself the trial of the Christians, but Saul was to arrest them and bring them before the august body, Present- ing the evidence in each case and doubtless acting as chief • prosecutor or state's attorney.
