STRONGS G2332:
Θεσσαλονίκη, -ης, ἡ, Thessalonica (now Saloniki), a celebrated and populous city, situated on the Thermaic Gulf, the capital of the second [(there were four; cf. Livy 45:29)] division of Macedonia and the residence of a Roman governor and quaestor. It was anciently called Therme, but was rebuilt by Cassander, the son of Antipater, and called by its new name [which first appears in Polybius 23, 11, 2] in honor of his wife Thessalonica, the sister of Alexander the Great; cf. Strabo 7, 330. Here Paul the apostle founded a Christian church: Acts 17:1, 11, 13; Philippians 4:16; 2 Timothy 4:10. [BB. DD. under the word; Lewin, St. Paul, 1, 225ff.]
