 * But.
   It is extremely probable that the inhabitants of Tarsus, born
   in that city, had the same rights and privileges as Roman
   citizens, in consequence of a grant or charter from Julius
   C(9173)ar, from whom it was called Juliopolis.  But if this were
   not the case, St. Paul's father, or some of his ancestors,
   might have been rewarded with the freedom of the city of Rome,
   for his fidelity and bravery in some military service, as
   Josephus says several of the Jews were; or his father might
   have obtained it by purchase, as in the instance of the chief
   captain.
