Κιλικία, Κιλικίας, ἡ, Cilicia, a province of Asia Minor, bounded on the north by Cappadocia, Lyesonia and Isauria, on the south by the Mediterranean, on the east by Syria, and on the west by Pamphylia.

Vocabulary of the Greek NT

Two reff. which have a certain relation to this district may be recorded here. The first introduces us to a Cilician physician who, on visiting the tombs of the Kings at Thebes, records his impression in the words—Θεόκριτος Κίλιξ ἰατρὸς ἰδὼν [ἐθαύμασα ] (Preisigke 19II ). The second mentions in a boat’s equipment κιλίκιον, evidently an article of the ";coarse cloth"; or cilicium, woven from the hair of Cilician goats (P Lond 1164(h).10 (A.D. 212) (= III. p. 164( . The in-geniously minded, in search of links of connexion with the NT, may be reminded by the former that Luke, even if an Antiochene by birth, may have acquired some of his medical knowledge at Tarsus, while the second points to the trade of tent-making from this very material, which Paul may first have learned in his native city (cf. Acts 18:3).
