“And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them. And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.”
Paul, along with Aquila and Priscilla, engaged in tentmaking to support himself while preaching the Gospel. This shows that building wealth through honest work is honorable and can coexist with full dedication to ministry.
