Pergamum, a prominent city in Asia Minor (modern Turkey)
Originally the citadel of Troy in Homer, Pergamum later designated a major city in western Asia Minor (modern Bergama, Turkey). By the New Testament era, it was a significant political, cultural, and religious center—home to a famous library, temple of Zeus, and imperial cult worship. Both New Testament uses appear in Revelation, addressing one of the seven churches. Revelation 1:11 includes Pergamum in the list of churches receiving letters. Revelation 2:12 begins the specific letter 'to the angel of the church in Pergamum.' The city represents a stronghold of both Hellenistic culture and emperor worship.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — Revelation 1:11 and 2:12 both use the dative case ('to Pergamum') in the epistolary address. The translations uniformly transliterate: Spanish 'Pérgamo,' French 'Pergamon,' German 'Pergamon.' The letter to Pergamum (Rev 2:12-17) acknowledges that the church dwells 'where Satan's throne is'—possibly referring to the massive altar of Zeus or the imperial cult center. Pergamum functions as both geographical location and symbolic representation of the church facing intense pagan cultural and religious pressure while called to remain faithful. 2×
