crete 音標拼音: [kr'it] n. 克利特島 克利特島 Crete n 1: the largest Greek island in the Mediterranean; site of the Minoan civilization that reached its peak in 1600 BC [synonym: {Crete}, {Kriti}] Crete \Crete\ (kr[=e]t), n. [L. Cres, Cretis.] A Cretan [1913 Webster] Crete now called Candia, one of the largest islands in the Meditterranean, about 140 miles long and 35 broad. It was at one time a very prosperous and populous island, having a "hundred cities." The character of the people is described in Paul's quotation from "one of their own poets" (Epimenides) in his epistle to Titus: "The Cretans are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies" (Titus 1:12). Jews from Crete were in Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2:11). The island was visited by Paul on his voyage to Rome (Acts 27). Here Paul subsequently left Titus (1:5) "to ordain elders." Some have supposed that it was the original home of the Caphtorim (q.v.) or Philistines. Crete, carnal; fleshly Crete, NE -- U.S. city in Nebraska
