Not illustrated. 1896 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER V. FOUNDATION OP THE CHURCHES OP GALATIA. I. PAMPHYLIA.

Further, the reason for this change of plan must have been merely a temporary one, for they preached in Pamphylia on their return journey. We are justified in connecting with this change of plan the one fact recorded about the missionary party in Pamphylia: John left them in...
