I think I read something like Paul's replacing Judas Iscariot in
Campbell Morgan's exposition (or sermon) of Acts of the Apostles.
Probably with regard to ch. 1 where a certain Matthis was chosen to take
the place of Judas. Morgan says that this choice was wrong, the real
replacement of Judas was Paul.
