It was situated near the Aegean Sea, opposite the island of Tenedos, and served as a significant port city in the Roman province of Asia. The city was founded by Antigonus I Monophthalmus, one of Alexander the Great's generals, and later expanded by Lysimachus, who renamed it Alexandria Troas in honor of Alexander the Great. Troas became an important center for trade and travel, given its strategic location along the route between Europe and Asia.<br><br><b>Biblical Significance:</b> <br>Troas holds considerable significance in the New Testament as a location visited by the Apostle Paul during his missionary journeys. It is mentioned several times in the Acts of the Apostles and in Paul's epistles, highlighting its role in the spread of early Christianity.<br><br>1. <b>Paul's Vision and Call to Macedonia:</b> <br> In <a href="/acts/16-8.htm">Acts 16:8-10</a>, Paul and his companions traveled to Troas during his second missionary journey. It was here that Paul received a vision of a man from Macedonia pleading for help, which he interpreted as a divine call to preach the Gospel in Europe. The Berean Standard Bible records, "So they passed by Mysia and went down to Troas. During the night, Paul had a vision of a man of Macedonia standing and pleading with him, 'Come over to Macedonia and help us.' As soon as Paul had seen the vision, we got ready to leave for Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them."<br><br>2. <b>Paul's Ministry in Troas:</b> <br> Paul visited Troas again during his third missionary journey. <a href="/acts/20-6.htm">Acts 20:6-12</a> describes his stay in the city, where he preached to the believers and performed a miracle by raising Eutychus from the dead after he fell from a window during a long sermon. The passage states, "On the first day of the week, we came together to break bread. Paul spoke to the people and, because he intended to leave the next day, kept on talking until midnight. Seated in a window was a young man named Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep sleep as Paul talked on and on. When he was sound asleep, he fell to the ground from the third account and was picked up dead. But Paul went down, threw himself on the young man and put his arms around him. 'Don’t be alarmed,' he said. 'He’s alive!' Then he went upstairs again and broke bread and ate. After talking until daylight, he left. The people took the young man home alive and were greatly comforted."<br><br>3. <b>Paul's Personal Correspondence:</b> <br> In <a href="/2_timothy/4-13.htm">2 Timothy 4:13</a>, Paul refers to Troas in a personal context, instructing Timothy to bring his cloak and scrolls left with Carpus in the city. This indicates that Troas was a place of personal and logistical importance to Paul. The verse reads, "When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas, and my scrolls, especially the parchments."<br><br><b>Archaeological and Cultural Insights:</b> <br>The ruins of Troas reveal a city that was once vibrant and influential, with remnants of its harbor, city walls, and public buildings. The city's infrastructure and location made it a hub for travelers and merchants, facilitating the exchange of goods and ideas, including the spread of Christianity. The presence of a Christian community in Troas during Paul's time suggests that the Gospel had taken root in this strategic location, contributing to the broader mission of the early Church.<br><br><b>Theological Implications:</b> <br>Troas serves as a testament to the providential guidance in Paul's missionary work, illustrating how God directed the spread of the Gospel through visions and divine encounters. The events in Troas underscore the importance of obedience to God's call and the power of the Holy Spirit in advancing the mission of the Church. The miraculous raising of Eutychus also highlights the apostolic authority and the life-giving power of the Gospel message.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Troas</span><p>penetrated<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Troas</span><p>the city from which St. Paul first sailed, in consequence of a divine intimation, to carry the gospel from Asia to Europe.

It was first built by Antigonus under the name of Antigonea Troas, and peopled with the inhabitants of some neighboring cities. Afterward it was embellished by Lysimachus, and named Alexandria Troas. Its situation was on the coast of Mysia, opposite the southeast extremity of the island of Tenedos. Under the Romans it was one of the most important towns of the province of Asia. In the time of St. Paul it was a <i>colonia</i> with the <i>Jus Italicum</i> . The modern name is <i>Eski-Stamboul</i> , with considerable ruins.

The adjacent region, including all the coast south of the Hellespont, is also called Troas, or the Troad. The city was a Macedonian and Roman colony of much promise, and was called Alexandria Troas. The Turks call its ruins Eski Stamboul, the old Constantinople. Its remains, in the center of a forest of oaks, are still grand and imposing. The apostle Paul was first at Troas for a short time in A. D. 52, and sailed thence into Macedonia, <a href="/context/acts/16-8.htm">Acts 16:8-11</a>. At his second visit, in A.

From here, according to <a href="/acts/16-8.htm">Acts 16:8</a>, Paul sailed. Here, also, according to <a href="/acts/20-5.htm">Acts 20:5-12</a>, Paul raised Eutychus from the dead. The name Troas was not confined to the town itself, but it was also applied to the surrounding district, or to that part of the coast which is now generally known as the Troad. In its early history it bore the name of Antigona Troas, which was given it by its founder Antigonus, but after 300 B.C. it was generally known to the classical writers as Alexander Troas, a name given to it by Lysimachus. For a time the Seleucid kings made their homes at Troas. Later, when the city became free, it struck its own coins, of which vast numbers are found; a common type is one upon which is stamped a grazing horse. In 133 B.C. Troas came into the possession of the Romans, and later, during the reign of Augustus, it was made a Roman colonia, independent of the Roman governor of the province of Asia. Its citizens were then exempt from poll and land tax. During Byzantine times Troas was the seat of a bishopric.<br><br>The ruins of Troas, now bearing the name of Eski Stambul, are extensive, giving evidence of the great size and importance of the ancient city. They have, however, long been used as a quarry, and the columns of the public buildings were taken to Constantinople for use in the construction of the mosque known as the Yeni Valideh Jami. The site is now mostly overgrown with oaks, but from the higher portions of the ruins there is an extensive view over the sea and the neighboring islands. It is only with difficulty that one may now trace the city walls and locate the square towers which flanked them at intervals. Within the walls are the remains of theater, the temple and the gymnasium, which was provided with baths. The port from which Paul sailed was constructed by means of a mole, with an outer and an inner basin. The most imposing of the ruins, however, is a large aqueduct which was built in the time of Trajan.<br><br>E. J.
