How was the faithfulness of this church commended?
Answer
"I know thy works, and where thou dwells, even where Satan's seat is: and thou held fast My name, and
has not denied My faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was MY faithful martyr, who was slain
among you, where Satan dwells!' Verse 13.
NOTE - Antipas comes from two Latin words, anti, opposed to, and Papas, father, or pope, and
denotes a class of people who were opposed to papal rule. Regarding Pergamos, see note on page 60 of
Vol. 11.
