Corinth (Κόρινθος, Korinthos). An influential Graeco-Roman city in the Peloponnesus region where Paul spent 18 months on his second missionary journey. The church at Corinth was the recipient of the First and Second Letter to the Corinthians. Archaeological and literary evidence about Corinth paints a rich picture of the city that Paul knew and provides an indispensable backdrop for understanding his writings to the Corinthians. More than many other New Testament locations, “the various sociological, economic, and religious factors that make up the environment of the city of Corinth have a profound influence on one’s understanding of Paul’s letters to the church there” (Fee, 1 Corinthians, 1).
