3. James Stalker’s book, The Life of St. Paul,
is an excellent condensed biography.
4. Bruce writes, “The apostle, as a Roman
citizen, must have had three names —
praenomen, nomen gentile and cognomen —
of which Paullus was his cognomen…. The
apostle’s praenomen
and nomen gentile,
unfortunately, have not been preserved.” F.
F. Bruce, Commentary on the Book of Acts,
pp. 264-65.
5. This is a strong likelihood when one
considers that in A.D. 33 (Stephen’s death)
Paul was a “young man” (Acts 7:58), and in
A.D. 61 he calls himself an aged man
(Philem. 9).
6. Some of the dates on the chart can only
be approximated.
7. Some hold that Galatians was not written
until a later date, for example after the
third missionary journey, around A.D. 56.

11. Of course Paul wrote other letters
during the course of his life. But these were
noncanonical. Only those inspired by the
Holy Spirit became part of the New
Testament.
