Re: "King Paul"
And if the 'polemarch' was Marcus Agrippa then the corruption of פולומרכא into 'Paulos' because all the more understandable given the personal name of the king.

Re: "King Paul"
The historical situation would presume:
1. a pre-existent Christian community presumably associated with 'Simon' (either 'Peter' or 'Magus' or the two being one and the same)
2. a period where Christianity was associated with rebels/brigands
3. a period where the authorities/the polemarch persecuted the rebels/brigands
4. a period (the Jewish War of 66 - 72 CE) where the 'polemarch' 'converted' to the religion and effectively took it over/Platonized it.
5. the continued existence of 'rebel Christians' persecuted by Vespasian and his sons (Eusebius) is a vestige of the earlier tradition.
6. the polemarch was responsible for pacifying the religion and identifying Jesus as a God.
