Church News: Question of the week

What distinction was made in New Testament times between Greeks and Grecians?

Here's answer to week's question

Jews of the dispersion who adopted Hellenists' customs and who spoke Greek (Acts 6:1; 9:29) were called Grecians. New Testament references to Greeks refer to persons of Greek lineage.
