och därifrån till Filippi som är den främsta staden i denna del av Makedonien och en koloni. Och i den staden stannade vi några dagar.
SKB
Därifrån fortsatte vi till Filippi, en ledande (stor, första) stad i det makedoniska distriktet [porten in i området från väst] – en [romersk] koloni. [Staden har fått sitt namn efter Filip II, far till Alexander den store som 356 f.Kr. annekterade den till sitt rike. Romarna invaderade staden 167 f.Kr. och orten blev sedan en militärkoloni och befolkningen bestod av många pensionerade romerska soldater.] Där stannade vi några dagar. [De vilade ut några dagar efter resan innan de påbörjade missionsarbetet. En kort fras i förbifarten, men dock viktig notering att vila också behövs.] [Det är troligt att Lukas, Apostlagärningarnas författare, har en speciell anknytning till Filippi. Det bekräftas av den detaljerade beskrivningen av staden och från ”vi-sektionerna” som börjar och slutar i trakten kring Filippi, se Apg 16:9, 40. Lukas stannar också kvar här och ansluter till Paulus när han i sin tredje resa kommer till Filippi igen, se Apg 20:6.] [Det fanns tydligen inte tillräckligt många judar i Filippi för att ha en egen synagoga. Enligt judisk tradition krävdes det minst tio män för detta. Var man färre hade man en böneplats (gr. proseuche) som ofta låg utanför staden i närhet till vatten så man kunde rituellt tvätta sina händer före bönen.]
