https://apologeticspress.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/From-Mars-Hill-To-Golgotha-JM-02.jpg19201077In ancient Athens, a massive rock known as Mars Hill—or the Areopagus [Ἄρειος Πάγος]—stood near the Acropolis as a site laden with mythology, law, and philosophical inquiry. The Greek name translates to “Ares’ Rock,” a name derived from the myth in which Ares, god of war, was tried here by other gods for the murder of Halirrhothius, son of Poseidon. This ancient tribunal became synonymous with judgment, a role it would carry into the time of the Apostle Paul, who later engaged with philosophers here.
