Gamaliel? Rather odd name. Gamaliel was the High Priest who was St. Paul’s mentor and teacher. Leading authority in the Sanhedrin in the 1st Century, a doctor of Jewish Law.

Waiting to hear about the connection.

Found the connection:

“The name “Gamaliel” refers to the Biblical wise man who was a teacher to St. Paul (see Acts 5:38-39; and Acts 22:3), whom Saul Alinsky considered to be the first great congregation-based organizer.” From Gamaliel website.
