<p> ''''' | <p> Acts 27:12. Phenice, or rather [[Phoenix]] (derived from the Greek, "palmtree"); a town and harbour S. of Crete, which as being safer to winter in the master of Paul's ship made for from [[Fair]] Havens, but owing to the tempestuous E.N.E. wind failed to reach. It looked toward the S.W. and N.W. On the S. side of the narrow part of [[Crete]] (Strabo x. 4). Situated over against [[Clauda]] (Hierocles). Now Lutro, but the description "looking toward S.W. and N.W." no longer applies. [[Either]] great changes have occurred in its curving shore, or translated "looking down the S.W. and N.W.," i.e. pointing the opposite direction to these winds, namely, N.E. and S.E. (?) </p> | ||
