Laodicea the chief city of Caria, after Strabo & Pliny, standeth by the river of Lycus. Antiochus Theos, 1builded the city, and named it after his wife. It was the wealthiest city of Asia: Which Vadiane also hath noted in his Epitome. It had by making of woollen clothe a most plentiful gain. Unto whom S. Paul seemeth also to have preached the gospel. For he mentioneth of Laodicea, from whence also some ⟨p. 124⟩men think he wrote the first Epistle unto Timothy.2 Certainly it appeareth that the Laodiceans had received the gospel, even by this Epistle, but corruptly. For they went about to match the world and the church together, and to join together Christ and Mammon: And as it is said at this day.
