This place shows up in Revelation 2:1: ““To the angel of the assembly in Ephesus write: “He who holds the seven stars in his right hand, he who walks among the seven golden lamp…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
Revelation 2:1
““To the angel of the assembly in Ephesus write: “He who holds the seven stars in his right hand, he who walks among the seven golden lamp stands says these things:”
