Acts 28:16

[Rom was founded in 753 BC and was built on seven hills by the River Tiber. During Paul's time, Rom had around 400,000 inhabitants. The famous Colosseum did not yet exist; it was built in the late 70s AD, but famous buildings included the Temple of Jupiter, Caesar's Palace, and the Temple of Mars, the god of war. There was a large Jewish population in Rom, numbering nearly 50,000 people. They were divided into at least eleven synagogues, according to the city's different districts.]
When we arrived in Rom, Paul was allowed to live on his own with the soldier who was to guard him.
[Luke and Aristarchus, who had traveled with Paul from Jerusalem, were also with him. In the letters Paul writes from Rom, Timothy, John Mark, and Demas are also mentioned. Paul is under house arrest. He probably lives in a Roman apartment building near the Praetorian Guard's barracks outside the city walls in northeastern Rom. The dwelling seems spacious, see verse 23. Luke and several of Paul's co-workers probably also live there with him. The guard who is chained to Paul's right hand is a low-ranking soldier. This reflects that Paul's status as a Roman citizen was not as special in Rom as it was in the provinces, see Acts 22:25–29.]
