Hi amigos!
I am studying the events surrounding the conversion of Paul, specifically about his retirement to Arabia. I am consulting The Dictionary of Pauls and His Letters, but I wonder if there are other resources that speak more in detail about these episode.
Why retirement to Arabia? Why Arabia? What was Arabia in the life of Paul, who in the most decisive moments of his life he retired 3 yrs to that region? When he says in Galatians that after his conversion, "I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood (Ga 1:16).", Is referring to his stay in Arabia?
I heard someone say that during this period, obviously consulted with who had been his teacher (Gamaliel), as good talmid. But I have not found evidence on this.
Suggestions, comments, please.
