Lydia of Thyatira
editThe text states that Lydia was a "Deaconess" but there is no evidence provided for this declaration. Neither the biblical text (Acts 16:11-40) nor greek grammar (Romans 16:1) supports the existence of female deacons. This should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MC1171611 (talk • contribs) 18:32, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
Center of the purple cloth trade? First convert?
editThyatira may have been a "center of the purple cloth trade" but Acts 16:14 is not valid evidence. Acts 16:14 merely says that Lydia sold purple cloth and she was from Thyatira. And I suspect no one knows who was Paul’s "first convert in Europe." I have edited accordingly. 伟思礼 (talk) 16:26, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
