Paul Apostle of Christ (March 2018)

Don't you mean you hope it "follows history" not the NT which even eludes to the fact that Saul is not Paul? And tells a story about Paul (sneaking out the window fleeing to Syria)borrowed from the life of
Apollonias of Tyana called "Pol" who was also from Tarsus.
In Acts Saul meets Sergius Paulus
called Paul who had with him a maggis(elymas) friend called Bar(son)Jesus, who Saul called the son of the devil.
The 3/4 the NT said to be written by Paul was also rumored to be written by Apollonias a non Jew therefore by combining the image of a Pius Jew Saul, they can sell a conversion story to convert Jews through.
Just as we see today, messianic proselytizing conjures up false claims that they were once Jews now converted, as they are willing to do or say anything to try and sign people up to make themselves feel validated.
