This place shows up in Colossians 4:13: “For I testify about him, that he has great zeal for you, and for those in Laodicea, and for those in Hierapolis.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
Colossians 4:13
“For I testify about him, that he has great zeal for you, and for those in Laodicea, and for those in Hierapolis.”
