PLACES IN ACTS: THESSALONICA

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. Places In Acts

a) We look at the places mentioned in Acts. Each place is located on a map and then we note the people and events associated with that place. Each place contains some information mentioned in the book of Acts. 

2. Thessalonica 

i) Pronounced Thess-luh-nike'-uh.

ii) Chief city of Macedonia about 160km southwest of Philippi.

iii) Probably had the only Jewish synagogue in Macedonia (Acts 17:1).
