Antonia
Kirjeldus
Antonia kindlus Jeruusalemmas, mis asub templi ala loodenurgas. Seda nimetatakse "lossiks" [Ap 21:34 ; Ap 21:37 ]. Selle kindluse treppidelt pidas Paulus oma kuulsa kõne all seisvale rahvale [Ap 22:1 -21]. Algselt oli see koht, kus hoiti ülempreestri rõivaid. Heroodes kindlustas selle ja nimetas selle Antoniaks oma sõbra Mark Antoniuse auks. See oli suur ja domineeris templi üle. See oli ehitatud kaljusele platvormile, mis eraldati põhja pool asuvast Bezetha mäest umbes 30 jalga sügava ja 165 jalga laia kraaviga.

teave sõnaraamatust
Antonia
a fortress in Jerusalem, at the north-west corner of the temple area. It is called "the castle" (Acts 21:34; 21:37). From the stairs of this castle Paul delivered his famous speech to the multitude in the area below (Acts 22:1-21). It was originally a place in which were kept the vestments of the high priest. Herod fortified it, and called it Antonia in honour of his friend Mark Antony. It was of great size, and commanded the temple. It was built on a plateau of rock, separated on the north from the hill Bezetha by a ditch about 30 feet deep and 165 feet wide.
