Greece is not a person but the region Paul traveled through and stayed in for three months near the end of his third missionary journey (Acts 20:2-3). In the Old Testament the region and its people are called Javan (Genesis 10:2; Daniel 8:21), and Greek cities such as Athens, Corinth, and Philippi became major centers of Paul's church-planting work in the New Testament.
