I was lector this morning at Reformation Lutheran. The Conversion of St.
Paul.....oy! But I realized something as I was prepping the
lesson....everyone talks about Paul being knocked off his horse, paintings
show it, and so forth, and the pastor even made mention of it......but
there is no mention of that darn horse in the scriptures! For all we know,
Saul, as he was then, could have been riding in a chariot, or even walking
(though the latter is not likely, Damascus being a fur piece, as they say
in east Tennessee, from wherever he was at the time).
