Besides, there is no evidence that any of the Apostles went door-to-door down any street in Jerusalem or Ephesus.

Yes "house to house" is a mistranslation of "in private homes", which is why Paul used it as a contrast to "teaching you publicly". Maybe they'll finally get 'new light' on the topic.

Havent you seen the photos, obviously taken by a time traveler?
Best story was the hour by hour of Paul's daily routine, study, work, service, meeting down to the minute. I forget where that was and am not wasting time looking. Incredible people believe anyone can know he ate lunch, then at 1:00 to 4 made tents, went doorcto door until 6 right on the dot

I heard he got so busy he forgot to report his Field service hours and got reprimanded.

But not publicly from "door-to-door" and I bet lots of jws are glad.

Ah, I wish I could've been around to watch the apostles knock on doors and hand out papyrus scrolls... to a largely illiterate public that couldn't read anyway. The very idea is laughable.

"Ah, I wish I could've been around to watch the apostles knock on doors and hand out papyrus scrolls... to a largely illiterate public that couldn't read anyway. The very idea is laughable." The WTS takes liberties with this concept and pictures in their publications. Supposedly, many Jews learned to read at the synagogue. But books/codex was a dream then. Even the material scrolls were made of was expensive, and the scrolls were not handed around. It is a historical deception. I showed this to a scholar in Jewish history, etc., and he just laughed and laughed.

Even pop in's are no longer socially accepted: Friends and family now text or phone before showing up!

That's so sad. We never locked our back door and people just knocked twice and came in.
Now my kids don't see anyone from one year to the next except at school. It breaks my heart. When.i go they'll have no one.😭
