Ver en EnglishThe philosophical capital of the ancient world where Paul delivered his famous Areopagus sermon about the "Unknown God."
Paul's spirit was provoked by the city's idolatry (Acts 17:16-34). He reasoned in the synagogue and marketplace, then delivered his masterful Areopagus address, using their altar "TO THE UNKNOWN GOD" to proclaim Christ. While some mocked, others believed, including Dionysius the Areopagite and a woman named Damaris.
Athens was the intellectual center of ancient Greece, home to Plato's Academy, Aristotle's Lyceum, and the Areopagus court. Though past its political prime in Paul's day, it remained influential in philosophy, featuring Stoic and Epicurean schools of thought.
