Welcome to Episode 2 of our special series, The Apostles of the New Testament!

In this episode of The Holy Land Path, we follow the footsteps of the Apostle Paul out into the Greco-Roman world and land in ancient Corinth—a bustling, strategic Roman trade hub filled with wealth, diverse cultures, and complex social dynamics.

Join us as we examine key historical and archaeological findings that bring the Book of Acts and Paul’s epistles to life:

• The Gallio Inscription: How a critical discovery in Greece firmly anchors Paul’s ministry and trial in the historical timeline of the 1st century.

• The Erastus Inscription: Is the "Erastus, the city’s director of public works" mentioned in Romans 16:23 the same man carved into the pavement near Corinth's ancient theater? We explore the fascinating debate among modern scholars.

• Early Christian Social Status: What these excavations reveal about the socioeconomic diversity of early believers—from humble workers to influential civic leaders.

• Navigating the Evidence: Why rigorous, honest scholarship matters, avoiding over-interpretation while honoring the biblical text.

Discover how archaeology illuminates the real-world context of Paul's mission in a pagan metropolis, providing powerful insights for living out our faith today.
