“Paul’s Conversion Experience and His Post-Conversion View of and Relationship with Judaism” by Diogo Roger D’Souza, SFX is an attempt at an exegetical exposition of Paul’s encounter with the Risen Christ that opened the way for his conversion, as narrated by Paul himself and by the evangelist in Luke-Acts. Moving forward, it questions the application of the word “conversion” (metanoia) to Paul’s experience based on Paul’s self-understanding of what happened to him. Instead, the words transformation or reconfiguration are suggested, or an added nuancing of the word “conversion” is proposed to more accurately describe the shift in Paul’s perspective and the corresponding changes in his life, including his relationship with Judaism.
