◄ 3828. Pamphulia ►
Strong's Lexicon Pamphulia: Pamphylia Original Word: Παμφυλία Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: Pamphulia Pronunciation: pam-foo-LEE-ah Phonetic Spelling: (pam-fool-ee'-ah) Definition: Pamphylia, a Roman province on the south coast of Asia Minor. Meaning: Pamphylia refers to a region in the southern part of Asia Minor (modern-day Turkey), located along the Mediterranean coast. It was known for its diverse population and cultural influences. Word Origin: Derived from the Greek words "πᾶς" (pas, meaning "all" or "every") and "φυλή" (phylē, meaning "tribe" or "race"). The name suggests a region inhabited by people of various tribes or races. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Hebrew equivalents for Παμφυλία, as it is a specific geographical term related to a region in Asia Minor during the Greco-Roman period. However, the concept of diverse tribes or peoples can be related to Hebrew terms like "שֵׁבֶט" (shevet, meaning "tribe") or "עַם" (am, meaning "people" or "nation"). Usage: The term Παμφυλία is used in the New Testament to denote the geographical region visited by Paul and Barnabas during their missionary journeys. It appears in the context of their travels and the spread of early Christianity. Context: Pamphylia was a coastal region in the Roman province of Asia Minor, bordered by Lycia to the west and Cilicia to the east. The region was known for its fertile plains and strategic location along the Mediterranean Sea, making it a hub for trade and cultural exchange. Historically, Pamphylia was inhabited by a mix of indigenous peoples and settlers from various Greek tribes, which is reflected in its name meaning "of all tribes." In the New Testament, Pamphylia is mentioned in the Book of Acts. During Paul and Barnabas's first missionary journey, they traveled through Pamphylia as they spread the message of the Gospel. Acts 13:13 notes their arrival in Perga, a city in Pamphylia: "After setting sail from Paphos, Paul and his companions came to Perga in Pamphylia, where John left them to return to Jerusalem." Later, in Acts 14:24, they passed through the region again: "After passing through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia." The region's diverse population and cultural influences provided a unique backdrop for the early Christian mission. The presence of various ethnic groups and languages in Pamphylia is also highlighted in Acts 2:10, where Pamphylians are listed among those present in Jerusalem during Pentecost, hearing the apostles speak in their own languages.
