<p> See Grecians . </p> | <p> '''Greeks,''' [[Grecians]] . The "Greeks" were those [[Greeks]] by race, Acts 16:1; Acts 16:3; Acts 18:17 [[A.]] [[V.,]] but the [[R.]] [[V.]] omits "the Greeks" and reads "they all;" or else [[Gentiles]] as opposed to Jews, Romans 2:9-10, "Gentile" [[A.]] [[V.,]] but the margin of the [[A.]] [[V.]] and the text of the [[R.]] [[V.]] read "Greek." But [[Grecians]] were foreign [[Jews]] as distinct from those in Palestine, who were called "Hebrews." Acts 11:20. The Greeks and Hebrews first met when the Tyrians sold the Jews to the Greeks. Joel 3:6. "Prophetical notice of [[Greece]] occurs in Daniel 8:21, etc., where the history of [[Alexander]] and his successors is rapidly sketched. Zechariah 9:13 foretells the triumphs of the [[Maccabees]] over the Græco-Syrian empire, while Isaiah looks forward to the conversion of the Greeks, amongst other Gentiles, through the instrumentality of [[Jewish]] missionaries. Isaiah 66:19." </p> | ||
