Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary
Act_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. (?)
Fausset's Bible Dictionary
By Andrew Robert Fausset, co-Author of Jamieson, Fausset and Brown's 1888.
Pheni'ce. Act_27:12. (More properly Phoenix, as it is translated in the Revised Version). The name of a haven in Crete on the south coast. The name was no doubt derived from the Greek word for the palm tree, which Theophrastus says was indigenous in the island. It is the modern Lutro. See Phoenice; Phoenicia.
