“Disgust at idols strengthened his love for idolaters, and the man who once held Gentile neighbors at a distance now listened to their problems, fears, and temptations.”
John Pollock, The Apostle: The Life of Paul

“His joy was a release of Paul's conversion, not the heavy backslapping practical-joking humor of the Victorians, nor the cynical satire or the flippancy of the twenty first century mass media, just the gift of not taking himself or his adversaries too seriously.”
John Pollock, The Apostle: The Life of Paul

“A colleague like Barnabas could comfort him (Paul) in illness and keep him from overstrain when fit.”
John Pollock, The Apostle: The Life of Paul
