What did Paul give up after his conversion on the road to Damascus?
After his conversion on the road to Damascus, Paul turned his back on his well-paying position as a member of the Sanhedrin and a Pharisee, and on the profits he had made as a religious leader in Israel. He gave up that lucrative standing within the Jews' religion.
Les suggests that after Paul's conversion on the road to Damascus, it totally upset his whole apple cart of life. He turned his back on his well-paying position as a member of the Sanhedrin and as a member of the Pharisees, and on the profits he had in the Jews' religion. Les notes that Paul was making big money as one of the religious leaders of Israel, and he turned his back on all that. Les wonders what his wife and kids did.
