Leaving aside the (silly?) question about Paul's
left-handedness (I cannot believe that even in America
anybody would study "left-handed readings" of Paul!);
it is a firm rabbinic tradition that Gamaliel was
descended from Hillel (a Benjaminite), and that he had
other Benjaminite students/acquaintances (e.g. R.
Eleazor b. Zadok).
There might be a case for Paul's participation in a
predominantly (?) Benjaminite school under Gamaliel,
in whcih eschatological expectations associated with
Benjamin flourished. Arising from Deut. 33:12; Gen
49:27. etc., these may have also included Elijah
speculation [for Elijah from Benjamin see Genesis
Rabbah 71:9; cf. Rom. k. 11 of course].
