The book The Cities of St. Paul: Their Influence on His Life and Thought, The Cities of Eastern Asia Minor by William M. Ramsay is a comprehensive study of the cities that were visited by the apostle Paul during his missionary journeys in Asia Minor. The author examines the historical, cultural, and religious context of each city, and how they shaped Paul's teachings and beliefs. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the cities of Pisidia, Lycaonia, and Phrygia, while the second part covers the cities of Mysia, Bithynia, and Pontus. Ramsay provides detailed descriptions of each city, including their geography, economy, social structure, and religious practices. The author also explores the impact of Paul's teachings on the people of these cities, and how they responded to his message. He examines the challenges that Paul faced in each city, including opposition from local authorities and resistance from traditional religious beliefs. Overall, The Cities of St. Paul: Their Influence on His Life and Thought, The Cities of Eastern Asia Minor is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of the early Christian church, as well as the historical context of the cities visited by the apostle Paul.1907. Ramsay, the first Professor of Classical Archaeology at Oxford University, pioneered the study of antiquity in what is today known as western Turkey. He went on to devote the latter part of his life to applying what he had learned to the study of the New Testament. He is also acknowledged as the outstanding authority on the life of Paul. This volume is divided into the following parts: Paulinism in the Greco-Roman World; Tarsus; Antioch; Iconium; Derbe; Lystra; and St. Paul in the Roman World.
