Or Colassae Colosse [1]
City on the river Lycus in Phrygia of Asia Minor. Colossians 1:2 . It appears as though Paul had not visited the city when he wrote the epistle to the church there, cf. Colossians 1:7; Colossians 2:1; but he may have done so in his journeys or have gone thither from Ephesus. He hoped to visit them soon, Philippians 22 , for to this place Philemon and Onesimus belonged. Colossians 4:9 . Colosse had been a place of importance, but declined on the rise of Hierapolis and Laodicea. The modern village Khonas is about three miles distant from the ancient ruins.
