ANTIPATRIS

(Gk. Antipatrís)

The city rebuilt by Herod the Great in 9 b.c.e. on the site of Aphek (1), renamed after his father Antipater. Located at modern Râs el-ʿAin/Tel Afeq (143168) on the coastal plain, it was perhaps a control point and way station between Caesarea Maritima and Jerusalem. Antipatris is mentioned in Acts 23:31 as the place of an overnight stop by Paul when taken under guard from Jerusalem to Caesarea during the procuratorship of Felix.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
