“Question & Answer”

Question:
Did Paul get to Rome?

Answer:
Yes, but later than he had hoped. In the spring of A.D. 58, he arrived at Jerusalem with the funds collected for the poor Christians of the Mother Church (2 Cor 8–9). He was arrested in the temple and spent two years in custody at Caesarea before appealing to Caesar as a Roman citizen. In the spring of the year A.D. 60, Paul, apostle and prisoner of Jesus Christ, entered Rome (Acts 28:16 NIV: When we got to Rome, Paul was allowed to live by himself, with a soldier to guard him.) and was welcomed by the Christian community there.
