“Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus,”
King James Version (KJV)
1:3 Whom I serve from my forefathers - That is, whom both I and my ancestors served. With a pure conscience - He always worshipped God according to his conscience, both before and after his conversion One who stands on the verge of life is much refreshed by the remembrance of his predecessors, to whom he is going.
