Usage: The term Ἄρτεμις appears in the New Testament in the context of the worship of the goddess in Ephesus, particularly in Acts 19, where the apostle Paul's ministry challenges the local devotion to Artemis. Context: Artemis, in the New Testament, is primarily known from the account in Acts 19:23-41. Ephesus was home to the Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The temple served as a major religious, cultural, and economic center. Artemis of Ephesus was depicted differently from the traditional Greek goddess, often shown with multiple breasts, symbolizing fertility and nurturing.
