Paul’s Associates in Asia Desert Him: 2 Timothy 1 Bible Map
When Paul said that everyone in Asia had deserted him, he wasn’t talking about the enormous continent we call Asia today. He’s talking about what is now Western Turkey, along the coast of the Aegean Sea.
Description
The Roman Asia
Paul was referring to the Roman province of Asia, a region covering much of western Turkey. It included important cities such as Ephesus, Laodicea, and Colossae.
Paul wrote 2 Timothy while imprisoned in Rome and apparently approaching the end of his life. He told Timothy that his associates from Asia had abandoned him, specifically naming Phygelus and Hermogenes. Their desertion stood in sharp contrast to the loyalty of Onesiphorus, who was not ashamed of Paul’s imprisonment and searched throughout Rome until he found him.
This Bible map highlights the Roman province of Asia and shows its location in relation to Rome, Greece, Macedonia, Crete, Cyprus, Jerusalem, and the wider Mediterranean world. It helps readers understand the distance separating Paul from Timothy and the geographic meaning of “Asia” in 2 Timothy 1:15.
Bible passage
