Noun paracheimasia (wintering) in the Gospels-Acts

(Translation from NRSV with a few modifications for a more literal meaning)


Acts

27: 12Since the harbor was not suitable for wintering (paracheimasia), the majority was in favor of putting to sea from there, on the chance that somehow they could reach Phoenix, where they could spend the winter. It was a harbor of Crete, facing southwest and northwest.
