Pergamum
place · Turkey
Pergame était une ville majeure d'Asie Mineure, deuxième parmi les sept Églises de l'Apocalypse. Apocalypse 2:13 la désigne comme le lieu « où est le trône de Satan » — probablement en référence à l'autel de Zeus ou au culte impérial. Jésus loue les croyants qui ont « tenu ferme » dans ce contexte idolâtrique difficile, tout en reprochant aux nicolaïtes et aux adeptes de Balaam.
