Description

Who was Secundus?

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Secundus is mentioned in Act.20.4 as one of the men who accompanied Paul on his journey from Greece to Jerusalem. He is described as a Thessalonian, indicating that he was from the city of Thessalonica. Secundus, along with several others, joined Paul in Troas after Paul had spent time in Greece. These men likely represented the churches in their respective cities and were delegated to travel with Paul to Jerusalem, possibly to deliver financial aid to the believers there.

Relations

Direct connections

Every entity the graph places in a stated relation with this one, grouped by the kind of link. Each relation is authored once and its inverse derived, so both ends always agree. Rows marked “registry” come from the identity spine rather than from a verse, and a row marked “which bearer is the source’s decision” is one where the name could have meant more than one person. The last group is not a relation at all — it counts the events two entities stand in together.

How the graph connects Secundus8 of 8 entities the graph connects to Secundus, in 2 groups: company 1, events 7. Kinship, company and ground are stated relations; events counts the acts two entities stand in together and is not a relation. Each mark is sized by how many verses name that entity and labelled with the link and the count, so the grouping and the size are both readable without colour. Distance from the centre carries nothing.ThessalonicaAssociated with · 11 versesCompanyPaul1 event · 182 versesTimothy1 event · 28 versesTychicus1 event · 7 versesAristarchus1 event · 5 versesTrophimus1 event · 3 versesSopater1 event · 2 versesGaius1 event · 1 verseEventsSecundus

Where the story of Secundus happensThe one place the claims about Secundus reach, on a map of the world the text moves through, framed to them: Thessalonica. Each dot is a coordinate from the gazetteer, sized by how many rows put Secundus there. The coastline is a modern one, simplified; no border, road or settlement of any period is drawn, and no line joins two points, because the rows state where and not in what order.Thessalonica
