The Bema of Apostle Paul in Ancient Corinth is a significant historical and religious site. This elevated platform in the Agora served as a place for public addresses and legal rulings. During the Roman period, it functioned as a tribunal where governors issued judgments.
According to tradition, Paul the Apostle was brought before Gallio, the Roman proconsul, around 51 AD. Accused of spreading new religious teachings, Paul was dismissed by Gallio, allowing him to continue his mission. This event, recorded in Acts 18:12-17, marks Corinth as a key site in early Christian history.
Today, the Bema is both an archaeological and spiritual landmark, drawing visitors seeking connection to the biblical narrative.
