Cenchreae

VIEW:45 DATA:01-04-2020
CENCHREÆ (AV [Note: Authorized Version.] Cenchrea is wrong) was the southern harbour of Corinth, and was on the Saronic Gulf about 7 miles E. of Corinth. It was a mere village, and existed solely for the transit of goods to and from Corinth. Thence St. Paul set sail for Syria (Act_18:18). Phœbe, the lady commended for her service to the church here (Rom_16:1), carried St. Paul’s Epistle to Rome.

sen?krē̇-ē (Κεγχρεαί, Kegchreaı́, Westcott and Hort, The New Testament in Greek Kenchreaı́; the King James Version incorrectly Cenchrea): A seaport of Corinth on the eastern side of the 1sthmus (see CORINTH). Here according to Act_18:18, Paul had his hair shorn before sailing for Syria, since he had a vow. A local church must have been established there by Paul, since Phoebe, the deaconess of Cenchrea, was entrusted with the Epistle to the Romans, and was commended to them in the highest terms by the apostle, who charged them to ?assist her in whatsoever matter she may have need? (Rom_16:1, Rom_16:2).
