How do you envision Paul's revelations? Do you believe he received these revelations/outer-body experiences in the context of ecstatic prayer (tongues, etc.), or perhaps under great duress and crying out to God? Or in a more serene setting of meditating on the Scriptures where he perhaps fell into a trance-like state? Was he just going about his day or actively seeking such revelatory experiences?

Would you simply categorize this woman's "revelations" as hallucinatory and Paul's revelations as from God? Or perhaps other spiritual forces are at play providing these sorts of "revelations"?

I recommend you do not try too hard and ...research as little as possible. Such weighty things give me a headache. - Shunyadragon, Baha'i apologist
