坚革哩
描述
哥林多东侧地峡上的一个海港(见哥林多)。根据使徒行传[Ac 18:18],保罗在启程前往叙利亚之前在此剃了头,因为他许了一个愿。保罗一定在这里建立了一个地方教会,因为坚革哩的女执事非比被委托携带《罗马书》,并且使徒以最高的评价推荐她,要求他们“在她需要的任何事情上帮助她”[罗 16:1 -2]。

Cenchrea
millet, the eastern harbour of Corinth, from which it was distant about 9 miles east, and the outlet for its trade with the Asiatic shores of the Mediterranean. When Paul returned from his second missionary journey to Syria, he sailed from this port (Acts 18:18). In (Rom 16:1) he speaks as if there were at the time of his writing that epistle an organized church there. The western harbour of Corinth was Lechaeum, about a mile and a half from the city. It was the channel of its trade with Italy and the west.
