Naaaaahhhhh.....he had a wife......(grin)....just kidding dear!

Actually some theologians beleive he did. [A] requirement of the Sanhedran according to Mosaic Law was to be married. And of course 'Saul' was a member of the Sanhedran which is clearly documented. One theory is that his wife died althought the Scripture is silent on this theory.

I always liked the joke that Paul was married, and his wife's name was Rose...hence the *thorn* in his side. < /corny joke>

I have always been taught he was a Pharisee, that he came from a Pharisee family. I don't know of any overlap between the two groups.
