Hello all,
I am one that takes it literal when St. Peter says he was in Babylon (Babel) at the end of his first Epistle. Yes, I know the Roman Catholic argument that says otherwise, but I feel their argument is not scrupturally based (other than the "reference" in the Western book of Revelations).
That said, does anyone have knowledge of other historically documents showing Mar Shimon Keepa traveled to Mesopotamia? I know not everything was recorded back then, but I would love to read anything pertaining to this topic.
Thanks,
