EDITORS COMMENTS
Damascus, Syria: Ancient Walls - Connected to the Flight of Saint Paul (circa 1910s) This evocative photograph captures the ancient walls of Damascus, Syria, a city steeped in history and intrigue. The image transports us back in time, as we gaze upon the weathered stones and piles of rubble that bear witness to centuries of history. The walls we see here hold a significant connection to one of the most famous stories in Christian history: the flight of Saint Paul from the city. Saint Paul, an apostle and one of the most influential figures in early Christianity, was forced to flee Damascus under the cover of night after explosive reactions from Jews opposed to his teachings. According to the biblical account in the Acts of the Apostles, Saint Paul was lowered down from a window in the city walls in a basket, aided by his disciples. The exact location of this window or window(s) is a subject of debate among scholars, but the ancient walls of Damascus remain a powerful reminder of this pivotal moment in religious history. The walls, which date back to the 4th century AD, have stood the test of time, bearing witness to the rich and complex history of this ancient city. As we contemplate the image before us, we are struck by the contrast between the enduring strength of the ancient walls and the fragility of human beliefs that once led to conflict and division. The walls stand as a testament to the resilience of history, while also serving as a reminder of the importance of understanding, tolerance, and unity in the face of difference.
