Meanwhile, – as he deals and applies with such things – it turns out that Paul was a connoisseur of classical Greek literature, acquainted with his contemporary philosophical thought, a brilliant mind, arguing with the Stoic and Epicurean philosophers in Athens – perhaps also due to the fact that Tarsus was a famous Greek education centre, and he was trained by that „school”.
