That depends on which Saul you are talking about. There was king Saul who was the first divinely appointed king of Israel. His account is contained in the books 1 & 2 Samuel. On the other hand there was the man Saul who was a pharisee who originally dealt "outrageously" with the 1st Century Christian congregation (Acts 8:3). He then was later met in vision by the glorified Jesus Christ and converted to Christianity where he redirected that zeal to serving God as an apostle for Christ. His name was then changed to Paul. Paul's account is contained in the book of Acts, also in the many letters he wrote which are also part of the Christian Greek scriptures.
