📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Acts, Paul is in Ephesus during his third missionary journey, where his preaching about Jesus as the one true God was challenging the dominant worship of the goddess Artemis, which was deeply tied to the local economy. This led to a riot instigated by silversmiths who feared losing their idol-making business, causing the crowd to seize Paul's companions, Gaius and Aristarchus from Macedonia. The theater in Ephesus served as a public assembly place for such gatherings, reflecting the cultural practice of resolving disputes in large venues.
