Iconion, Lycaonia, 1st Century B.C.
|Lycaonia|, |Iconion,| |Lycaonia,| |1st| |Century| |B.C.|, According to the Acts of the Apostles, Paul and Barnabas preached in Iconium during their First Missionary Journey in about 47 - 48 A.D., having been persecuted in Antioch, and Paul and Silas probably visited it again during Paul's Second Missionary Journey in about 50. Their visit to the synagogue of the Jews in Iconium divided the Jewish and non-Jewish communities between those who believed Paul and Barnabas' message and those who did not believe, provoking a disturbance during which attempts were made to stone the apostles. They fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia. This experience is also mentioned in the Second Letter to Timothy.
