Docent
A docent is a college or university lecturer.
Among Paul's vast credentials was the fact that he studied under the legendary docent, Gamaliel.
"I am a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but brought up in this city, educated under Gamaliel, strictly according to the law of our fathers, being zealous for God just as you all are today." (Acts 22:3, NASB)
Note: This image of Gamaliel's counsel (see Acts 5) comes from Volume 10 of The Bible and its Story Taught by One Thousand Picture Lessons, edited by Charles F. Horne and Julius A. Bewer and published by Francis R. Niglutsch in 1910.
