Dean "Pun intended?"

Quote:Shlama lukhon,

Take a look at Romans 1:1. The word(s) commonly appearing in most English bibles for “set-apart” or “separated” for the gospel of God, is the Aramaic root "parash" [font=Estrangelo (V1.1)]$rp [/font]. Could the Apostle Paul have intended a pun, wittingly pointing to his former life as a Pharisee or “Pareesha” [font=Estrangelo (V1.1)]04yrp[/font] ?
