Was paul the apostle the greatest man who ever lived?

Born as saul of tarsus, a jew who was also a roman citizen. He "held the clothes" of those who stoned stephan, the first christian martyr. Who spoke of christ, who had been killed by the pharisee jews. And, infuriated, they then killed him. But the boy had been impressed by what he heard from the man, and the way he died. Forgiving his enemies.
