No. He does not suggest that he received a this from personal contact
with Jesus. He does not even say that *he* received it, only that he
knew someone who did receive it. Although scholars argue that Paul
speaks indrectly about his own experience, it is *not* what Paul says,
and there is no real evidence for such an assumption. "I know a man
.." he says.
