The year 51 AD.

Events[]

  • Paul writes The First Epistle to the Thessalonians and his Epistle to the Galatians.
  • Paul and Silas travel through Amphipolis and Apollonia, and preach in Thessalonica for three weeks, staying with Jason. Some of the Jews are converted to Christianity, but unconverted Jews accuse Paul and Silas of sedition: "These all act contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus!" Paul and Silas then travel to Beroea. However, the Jews of Thessalonica follow them to Beroa with the same accvusations (Acts 17:1-15)
  • Paul and Silas leave Beroa for Athens. Paul notices an idol dedicated "to the unknown god," which he identifies with the true God: "What therefore you worship in ignorance, this I announce to you." In the Areopagus (the Hill of Ares), Paul debates with Epicurean and Stoic philosophers concerning the nature of God and salvation. (Acts 17:16-34)
