Promise Keeper, Acts 18:9-10

Corinth was ancient Greece most important trade city; it was ideally situated between the Ionian Sea and the Aegean Sea, making it the connecting link between Rome the capital of the world and the East. In fact it was Rome in 146 BC, who invaded Corinth killing the men and enslaving the women and children, and it remained that way for 100yrs until Julius Caesar ordered it to be rebuilt and restored it as the capital city of the Roman province Achaia.
