St Paul and temporal lobe epilepsy

D Landsborough. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry. 1987 Jun.

Abstract

Evidence is offered to suggest a neurological origin for Paul's ecstatic visions. Paul's physical state at the time of his conversion is discussed and related to these ecstatic experiences. It is postulated that both were manifestations of temporal lobe epilepsy.
