Default When did Paul see Jesus?

If Jesus physically disappeared from the Earth at the Ascension, when did Paul see a physically resurrected Jesus?

Who said that Paul saw a physically resurrected Jesus? Not Paul.

Maybe he saw a spiritual Jesus. Maybe it was when he went up to the third heaven.

Paul never met Jesus personally. Jesus caught Paul (at that time he was still Saul) off guard when Paul was on his way to Damascus to beat up a bunch of Christians. Paul did not see Jesus, just a light which Jesus is also known to be. Paul and his entorage all heard Jesus and when the incident was over Paul was blind.

It is apparent that all three of you did not catch the Jerry Springer episode where the virgin Mary set the record straight on this!
