Arrive at the Corinth Canal for a brief stop and then continue on to the Acropolis of Corinth. Acro-corinth is the citadel of Corinth. It is situated to the southwest of the ancient city and rises to an elevation of 1883 ft. [574 m.]. Today it is surrounded by walls that are about 1.85 mi. [3 km.] long. The foundations of the fortifications are ancient—going back to the Hellenistic Period. The current walls were built and rebuilt by the Byzantines, Franks, Venetians, and Ottoman Turks. Climb up and visit the fortress. Then proceed to the Ancient city of Corinth. It was to this megalopolis where the apostle Paul came and worked, established a thriving church, subsequently sending two of his epistles now part of the New Testament. Here, we see all of the sites associated with his ministry: the Agora, the Temple of Apollo, the Roman Odeon, the Bema and Gallio’s Seat. The small local archaeological museum here is an absolute must! In Romans 16:23 Paul mentions his friend Erastus and • • we will see an inscription to him at the site.

The breakthrough to the non-Jewish world with the Gos- pel had largely started at Antioch. And now this group of believers would launch a movement toward Gentiles that would revolutionize Christianity. This event was the beginning of the first missionary journey of Paul and Barnabas.

  • What Happened to the Galatian Christians? Paul's Legacy in Southern Galatia
    Acta Theologica 2014 Suppl 19: 1-17 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/actat.v33i2S.1 ISSN 1015-8758 © UV/UFS <http://www.ufs.ac.za/ActaTheologica> Cilliers Breytenbach WHAT HAPPENED TO THE GALATIAN CHRISTIANS? PAUL’S LEGACY IN SOUTHERN GALATIA ABSTRACT Paul’s Letter to the Galatians points to the influence of his missionary attempts in Galatia. By reconstructing the missionary journeys of Paul and his company in Asia Minor the author argues once again for the south Galatian hypothesis, according to which the apostle travelled through the south of the province of Galatia, i.e. southern Pisidia and Lycaonia, and never entered the region of Galatia proper in the north of the province. Supporting material comes from the epigraphic evidence of the apostle’s name in the first four centuries. Nowhere else in the world of early Christianity the name Παῦλος was used with such a high frequency as in those regions where the apostle founded the first congregations in the south of the province Galatia and in the Phrygian-Galatian borderland. 1. INTRODUCTION Even though Barnabas and Paul were sent by the church of Antioch on the Orontes to the province Syria-Cilicia to spread the gospel on Cyprus and they then went to Asia Minor,1 it was only Paul who revisited Lycaonia (cf. Acts 16:1-5; 18:23). The epigraphical material referred to here, will illustrate that more than anyone else, Paul left his mark on Lycaonian Christianity.2 From the scant evidence available, it is clear that the Pauline letters and 1 Cf.

  • Jewish Communities in Asia Minor
    Jewish Communities in Asia Minor PAUL R. TREBILCO Professor of New Testament Studies Knox Theological Hall University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand The right of the University of Cambridge to print and sell all manner of books was granted by Henry VIII in 1534. The University has printed and published continuously since 1584. CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS CAMBRIDGE NEW YORK PORT CHESTER MELBOURNE SYDNEY 4 THE JEWISH COMMUNITY AT APAMEA The city of Apamea in Phrygia was founded by Antiochus I Soter (280-261 BCE) as part of a scheme to strengthen the Seleucid hold on Asia Minor, to facilitate trade and to protect the highways. It was one of a series of garrison-cities and was built at a point of strategic impor- tance on the Great Southern Highway. Antiochus I Soter founded the city on a plateau on either side of the Marsyas River by moving the inhabitants of nearby Celaenae into his newly created city. Celaenae itself was a large and prosperous city with a long history. Under Persian rule, Celaenae became the principal royal seat in Phrygia and a residence of the satraps. After Alexander conquered the city, it was designated as the Greek Capital of Inner Anatolia.1 At the beginning of the common era, Apamea was the second most important market and distribution centre in Asia Minor owing to its geographical location. The city commanded the cut in the mountain range through which the Southern Highway climbed to the plateau of Central Anatolia, making it the commercial junction through which wealth-laden traffic passed to the East.

  • Diakonos and Prostatis: Women’S Patronage in Early Christianity
    Diakonos and prostatis: Women’s patronage in Early Christianity Carolyn Osiek1 Texas Christian University Texas (USA) Abstract In spite of numerous studies on the patronage system in Mediterranean antiquity, little attention has been paid to either how the patronage of women was part of the system or how it differed. In fact, there is substantial evidence for women’s exercise of both public and private patronage to women and men in the Greco- Roman world, by both elites and sub-elites. This information must then be applied to early Christian texts to infer how women’s patronage functioned in early house churches and Christian life. 1. INTRODUCTION The name of Phoebe and the allusion to Romans 16:1 these days evokes interest, controversy, and extensive bibliography. I do not intend here to exegete this passage, but to use it as a springboard to examine a significant part of the social life of early Christianity that has received little attention: the role of women patrons in the life of the church. To do that, we must back up and look first of all at the wider phenomenon of patronage in the ancient Greco-Roman world and how it functioned with regard to women. The phenomenon of patronage in ancient Roman society has been well studied. There are major cross-cultural studies of the social construction of patronage (Gellner & Waterbury 1977; Eisenstadt & Roniger 1984; Elliott 1996) and of its specific exercise in ancient Rome (Saller 1982; Wallace- Hadrill 1989; Krause 1987). Patronage in early Christianity is now beginning to occupy the attention of biblical scholars and historians, beginning already with 1 Prof Dr Carolyn Osiek is Professor of New Testament at Brite Divinity School, Texas Christian University, Fort Worth (TX), USA.

Prof. Charles Gates August 2019 There are upwards of sixty different cult epithets for the Phrygian goddess Meter in Central Anatolia alone during the Roman Imperial period. Considering that only three or four of her epithets are known from the Hellenistic period, the contrast is striking. Moreover, many of the epithets tend to be epichoric, so that in essence, her names can change from one valley to the next. In some cases, merely hearing an epithet is enough to bring a certain part of central Anatolia to mind. From this, a natural question arises. Why was there a need for so many local Meter cults in Asia Minor? The goddess Meter, called Magna Mater by the Romans, had been adopted into the Roman Pantheon in 204 BC; but could she, although indigenous to Phrygia, no longer meet the religious needs of her homeland’s people? This thesis approaches these questions by two primary means.
