"In Art" Section: The Two Rubens Paintings of Paul
According to the Wikimedia page for it, the name of the second of the two Rubens paintings, that the article says portrays Paul, is "St James the Apostle." A survey of the Web confirmed that name for that painting, so I deleted it. See Rubens' Apostles Series http://www.artbible.info/art/topics/rubens-apostles-series. ô¿ô (talk) 19:34, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
Capitalization
The word Gentiles under the section "Last visit to Jerusalem and arrest" should be capitalized. Daddy Mittens (talk) 22:16, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
Paul's escape from Damascus
It is noted in Raanan Shaul Boustan, Alex P. Janssen, Calvin J. Roetzel (2010) Violence, Scripture, and Textual Practices in Early Judaism and Christianity BRILL pg 94 regarding 2 Cor. 11:30-33: "Coming after the catalogue of hardships (11:23-29), the passage appears to be a non-sequitur. Some think it is was an afterthought, a marginal "gloss" copied into the text, or even a later insertion" and give one reference for each stated possibility
Eerdmans Dictionary of the Bible (2000) on page 434 states "However the historical reliability of 2 Vor. 11:32-33 is challenged by its identification at a textual gloss and by the narrative's similarities to Josh 2."--216.223.234.97 (talk) 18:38, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
Semi-protected edit request on 27 February 2015
2601:8:900:6CE:893C:8FC9:9DCF:2ACD (talk) 07:48, 27 February 2015 (UTC) Paul wasn't referred to as Saul "early on." Paul was referred to as Saul prior to meeting Jesus on the road to Damascus.
- Yes, which was early on in his life. Also, the rest of the paragraph explains this. Joseph2302 (talk) 20:20, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
Mass removal of last year's changes
- Actually I think the version we have here is now as it was 25 October 2013 - https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Paul_the_Apostle&diff=578721153&oldid=578627478 is identical with what we have now. Article was reverted to a version from 2013 October. Hafspajen (talk) 01:40, 15 March 2015 (UTC)
- This edit note (Gratuitous change of spelling system) does not indicate any removal of artwork at all, or why. I really don't understand this edit. I am confused by this edit, to be sincere. I was closely following this article for two years, and references are removed and stuff that we reached consensus on the talk page. I think about this edit... and I don't understand it. Because galleries are not discouraged, and the artworks of Rembrandt, Rubens and Caravaggio and other notable old masters works were removed from article. We routinely use them on all Apostle's and Saint's articles. It is an important part of our cultural heritage and it is a wonderful way for people get to know great artwork. All similar articles are illustrated with the artworks of great masters. Please discuss all removal and motivate why. Hafspajen (talk) 00:39, 15 March 2015 (UTC).
- I was checking further. It also say now that the lead is too long, and it is tagged since 2013 - but the lead was changed since then, and now it is suddenly is tagged since 2013 ... and it is longer. Hafspajen (talk) 01:11, 15 March 2015 (UTC)
- I have added back artwork, but all changes since 2013 October were removed. I sincerely think that article should be restored. Hafspajen (talk) 01:50, 15 March 2015 (UTC)
- I agree, it should be restored. Editor2020, Talk 02:21, 15 March 2015 (UTC)
- And I have done so. Editor2020, Talk 02:28, 15 March 2015 (UTC)
- My apologies for the mess. I was only intending to revert this edit of an IP who has been making sweeping spelling changes in a deliberately disruptive way (even changing American proper names to British spelling). There was quite a lot of articles involved and I was not paying as much attention as I should to all of them. I probably clicked "restore version" instead of "undo" by mistake.
