Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense
And Aaron shall burn thereon sweet incense every morning: when he dresseth the lamps, he shall burn incense upon it. And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at even, he shall burn incense upon it, a perpetual incense before the LORD throughout your generations.
And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand.
The catacombs existed during the time of Peter and Paul. They were used for the burial of Jews, among which the Romans included members of the Jewish sect called "Christians".
TO my knowledge, Christians were not underground in the catacombs having church services during the days of Peter and Paul... do you have evidence to demonstrate this historically? If so, I’d like to know.
