Senses in use

  1. Place named in regional lists · dominant

    In Acts 2:9, the accusative singular form occurs in a list of residents from Mesopotamia, Judea, this place, Pontus, and Asia; the APB renders the list with “Cappadocia.” In 1 Peter 1:1, the genitive singular form occurs among the places of the dispersion addressed by Peter; the APB likewise includes “Cappadocia.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as “Cappadocia” in both regional lists. This reflects the verse-level presentation rather than a separate lexical rendering claim.
