Derbe is southeast of Lystra some thirty miles, in modern Turkey. In the Lycaonian District, this town was at the extreme edge of cities considered Galatian. The town was small, but the work of Paul and Barnabas yielded a number of followers. Among them, Gaius was converted and much later joined Paul's team on the Third Missionary Journey.
