Laodicea

In Revelation, the last book of the Bible, there are letters written to seven churches in Anatolia. The last of them is addressed to Laodicea, and it is hardly flattering: the people of the city are told that they are “neither cold nor hot”, that they have stayed lukewarm… So what does it mean to accuse a city of being lukewarm? The answer may well lie hidden just around this plateau.
