The work establishes the relative and absolute chronology of Paul's life. It demonstrates that
Paul went to Jerusalem only two times after his conversion. The second visit which was planned
in Rom and described retrospectively in Gal ended up with the Antiochene conflict. The
following Eucharistic schism within early Christianity has lasted for at least a century after
Paul's death in AD 49. The so-called Pastoral Letters which are in fact ethopoeic confirm
this state of matters. The history of the Pauline mission as it was described in the Acts of
the Apostles is a result of sixfold hypertextual reworking of Gal 1:17-2:14 Rom 15:25-32 with
the use of other Pauline and post-Pauline texts. Luke irenically described the history of early
Christianity as a history of the reunited Church.
