3 [a]I am verily a man, which am a Jew, born in Tarsus in Cilicia, but brought up in this city at the [b]feet of Gamaliel, and instructed according to the perfect manner of the Law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day.
4 And I persecuted this way unto the death, binding and delivering into prison both men and women.
