Mars Hill

Ἄρειος πάγος , πάγος

A prominent rise overlooking the city of Athens where the philosophers of the city gathered to discuss their ideas, some of which revolutionized modern thought. Paul discussed religion with the leading minds of Athens on Mars Hill. He used the altar to an “unknown god” to present Jesus to them (Acts 17:22 ). See Greece .
