The city the Bible argues with most — Babylon.
Tower of Babel. 70-year exile. Daniel's lions. The Hanging Gardens. The verse named the city in Genesis 11. 4,000 years later, archaeologists are still excavating.
First of the seven churches — Ephesus.
Library of Celsus. A theater seating 25,000. The Temple of Artemis, one of the seven wonders. The verse names the city. The marble names everything else.
The city that named the religion — Antioch.
Two billion people now answer to a label first applied in this city. Read Acts 11:26 — the verse names the place. The modern earthquake of 2023 has reshaped what's left.

30,000 people. A separation wall. Olive trees older than the verse. Bethlehem's address has been the same for nearly three thousand years.
