Paul the Apostle undertook multiple journeys across the Roman Empire to spread his teachings, establish communities, and support early Christian groups.

Paul's journey to Rome, undertaken as a prisoner appealing his case to the Roman emperor Nero (r. 54-68 CE), involved perilous sea travel, including a shipwreck on the island of Malta. He finally arrived in Rome and continued his work under house arrest while awaiting his trial.

Special thanks to Patrick Scott Smith for his research and input.
