Where was Paul when the earthquake struck Philippi?
A:According to Acts chapter 16 Paul and Silas had been imprisoned in Philippi and were praying that night when an earthquake freed them, although as honourable men they refused to escape. However, it is not as simple as that. An important, well disguised theme of Acts of the Apostles is the primacy of Peter over Paul during the period of their respective ministries. Paul was released from prison by a timely earthquake that arguably need not have been of divine origin, but Peter was released from prison twice by angels, who in one case accompanied Peter from the prison. Both this and the story of Paul's conversion on the road to Damascus appear to have been inspired by the ancient play known as the Bacchae, by Euripides (d. 406 BCE). Paul himself says that he was imprisoned but never mentions this episode, so we should really assume that the passage was probably created for theological purposes alone. Even if Paul was imprisoned in Philippi, he was certainly never freed by an earthquake while in prison.
