Answer 1

Paul of Tarsus cannot be attributed to being born a Roman who revered the emperor. He played a major role in the spread of Christianity and emphasized the death and resurrection of Jesus. He also represented the multi-ethnic and multi-cultural nature of the Roman peace in his evangelistic efforts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Paul of Tarsus was one of the key figures in the spread of Christianity in the ancient Mediterranean world. He cannot be attributed to option D) He was born a Roman who revered the emperor. Paul was not born a Roman, but rather he was a Jewish leader who later converted to Christianity. He played a major role in preaching about Jesus and emphasizing his death and resurrection, as mentioned in option C. Furthermore, Paul's conversion and vision of Jesus are mentioned in option B. Lastly, he represented the multi-ethnic and multi-cultural nature of the Roman peace in his evangelistic efforts across the Greek and Roman cities, therefore option E can be attributed to him as well.
