Question:
To what course of conduct did Paul’s informed Pharisaism (the doctrine or practices of the Pharisees, especially strict observance of the traditional and written law:) lead?
Answer:
Paul sought desperately to exterminate Christianity, which he regarded as a rival of the true faith: “I persecuted this Way to the death, binding and delivering to prison both men and women” (Acts 22:4) “Many a time I went from one synagogue to another to have them punished, and I tried to force them to blaspheme. I was so obsessed with persecuting them that I even hunted them down in foreign cities. Acts 26:11 NIV”
