I myself thought. He shows his motivation as it had been when he persecuted the Christians. He did it, thinking that he honored God by doing it. I also voted for it. This may only mean that Paul approved of what was done (compare Acts 8:1), The literal meaning is that Paul was a member of the Council. But one of the requirements for membership was to be married and have a son. Some think that Paul's wife had died before he became a Christian. If Paul had been married, it would explain some of his insights in 1 Corinthians 7, Many times I had them punished. Compare Matthew 10:17; Matthew 23:34. Tried to make them deny their faith. By the use of threats and torture. With such a history as this, no one could suspect him of "selling out" to a false ideology, All there must see that some amazing change had taken place in this man!!!
