Corinth \ Cor" inth\ ( k? r"? nth), n. [ L. Corinthus, Gr. ????. Cf. { Currant}.] 1. A city of Greece, famed for its luxury and extravagance. [ 1913 Webster] 2. A small fruit; a currant. [ Obs.] -- Broome. [ 1913 Webster] Corinth a Grecian city, on the isthmus which joins the Peloponnesus to the mainland of Greece. It is about 48 miles west of Athens. The ancient city was destroyed by the Romans ( B. C. 146), and that mentioned in the New Testament was quite a new city, having been rebuilt about a century afterwards and peopled by a colony of freedmen from Rome. It became under the Romans the seat of government for Southern Greece or Achaia ( Acts 18: 12- 16). It was noted for its wealth, and for the luxurious and immoral and vicious habits of the people. It had a large mixed population of Romans, Greeks, and Jews. When Paul first visited the city ( A. D. 51 or 52), Gallio, the brother of Seneca, was proconsul. Here Paul resided for eighteen months ( 18: 1- 18). Here he first became aquainted with Aquila and Priscilla, and soon after his departure Apollos came to it from Ephesus. After an interval he visited it a second time, and remained for three months ( 20: 3). During this second visit his Epistle to the Romans was written ( probably A. D. 55). Although there were many Jewish converts at Corinth, yet the Gentile element prevailed in the church there. Some have argued from 2 Cor. 12: 14; 13: 1, that Paul visited Corinth a third time ( i. e., that on some unrecorded occasion he visited the city between what are usually called the first and second visits). But the passages referred to only indicate Paul' s intention to visit Corinth ( comp. 1 Cor. 16: 5, where the Greek present tense denotes an intention), an intention which was in some way frustrated. We can hardly suppose that such a visit could have been made by the apostle without more distinct reference to it. Corinth, which is satisfied; ornament; beautyCorinth, AR -- U.
