Paul sits with his writing materials at the home of Priscilla (also: Prisca) and Aquila, composing letters. Like Paul, the married couple works as tentmakers. At the same time, they support him both practically and theologically. Priscilla stands for the special role of women in early Christianity. She is not only a supporter, but also an equal partner in teaching and mission.
