STRONGS G123:
αἰγιαλός,
-οῦ,
ὁ,
the shore of the sea, beach, [from Homer down]:
Matthew 13:2,
48;
John 21:4;
Acts 21:5;
Acts 27:39,
40.
(Many derive the word from
ἄγνυμι and
ἅλς, as though equivalent to
ἀκτή, the place where the sea breaks; others from
αἶγες billows and
ἅλς [Curtius, § 140; Vanicek, p. 83]; others from
ἀΐσσω and
ἅλς [Schenkl, Liddell and Scott, under the word], the place where the sea rushes forth, bounds forward.)
