Heaven forbid! Chalila V'Chas.

1. I was quoting from a Hebrew early print. I even included the URL, so you
can see the yourself.

2. I never claimed he converted. I wrote that his Wikipedia biography was

Didn't come across any Pauls in my research, nor any Latin. Nor any Arabic,
not sure why that was included.
