The second is examined in detail. Jerome qualifies it as a fabula, which in his vocabulary means hearsay supplied by his Jewish interlocutors. The authority of this tradition would seem, then, to be weak. One concludes, then, that Paul was born at Tarsus in a Jewish family of the Diaspora and that at an early age he came to Jerusalem where he received his education as a Pharisee. |
