Just wondering what is the "plenty of extra-biblical evidence"?
Good point, I didn’t fact check that part, I probably mixed up hazy memories of some other incidents I read about in the Didache and other early church writings. Wikipedia says there’s no evidence outside of Luke’s and Paul’s own words (Acts and Galatians respectively) and since Luke was hanging out with Paul for a lot of that time (see all the times Acts switches between “he” and “we”) we could be skating on thin ice as far as actual textual evidence goes. Good spot, thanks for calling me out.
