I've yet to read a satisfying interpretation of Paul's word: "I fought with 
wild beasts in Ephesus."  Anyone have an insight into that?

Also, it appears that Priscilla and Aquila risked their necks for Paul in 
Ephesus. I've heard some say that they were the beach head for the newly 
founded church in Rome, Paul sending them there (as he did to Ephesus 
previous) to spearhead the new church. 

Claudius had died and the ban was lifted around A.D. 54. The idea is that 
they went to Rome near the lifting of the ban thus risking their lives.

Any thoughts on that theory? Or better ones that fit the story?
