Greek-English Concordance for Φοῖνιξ

Acts 27:12 And since the harbor was unsuitable to winter in, the majority made a decision to put out to sea from there, if somehow they might be able to reach Phoenix (Phoinika | Φοίνικα | acc sg masc), a harbor of Crete, facing both southwest and northwest, and spend the winter there.
