Phoenix

뵈닉스

Named at Acts 27:12 as a port of Crete, looking southwest and northwest: because the haven where the ship lay was not suitable to winter in, the majority advised going to sea from there, if by any means they could reach Phoenix and winter there. The Korean Revised Version says that Phoenix faces northeast on one side and southeast on the other.

  • ACT 27:9–12, engwebp

    9When much time had passed and the voyage was now dangerous because the Fast had now already gone by, Paul admonished them

    10and said to them, “Sirs, I perceive that the voyage will be with injury and much loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives.”

    11But the centurion gave more heed to the master and to the owner of the ship than to those things which were spoken by Paul.

    12Because the haven was not suitable to winter in, the majority advised going to sea from there, if by any means they could reach Phoenix and winter there, which is a port of Crete, looking southwest and northwest.
