Bible in 3D: Didyma’s Apollo Temple, Miletus Harbor, and Acts 20

Walk the ancient coastline of the New Testament with us—Temple of Apollo at Didyma and the theater/harbor at Miletus—while we read Paul’s farewell to the Ephesian elders from Acts 20 on the very ground where it happened. We get up close with colossal column drums, the adyton tunnel, earthquake-toppled sections, and the vast cavea of Miletus. Our guide also connects festivals of Dionysus, the city grid innovations of Hippodamus of Miletus, and the Sacred Way procession linking Miletus to Didyma. If you love biblical geography, Greco-Roman archaeology, and seeing Scripture in situ, this one’s for you. What you’ll see Didyma’s Apollo sanctuary (column scale, carving methods, adyton entry) Miletus theater architecture (tiers, vomitoria, festival use) Harbor siltation and current excavations (why the shoreline moved) Reading Acts 20:22–38 on site—Paul’s moving goodbye to the Ephesian elders Why it matters for Bible study These stones give context: “gospel” in a Roman world, elders/overseers language, Paul’s tears, generosity, and vigilance against false teaching—framed by the lived spaces of Asia Minor. ***Disciple Dojo shirts and gifts are available over in our online store! - https://www.zazzle.com/discipledojo New here?
