ARVAD | A Phoenician city, on a small rocky island at the mouth of the river Eleutherus, twenty-two miles north of Tripolis. It is now called Ruad, and is but a ruin. The Arvadites also occupied the adjacent coast. They were descendants of Canaan, Ge 10:18; 1Ch 1:16; and were noted mariners, Eze 27:8,11. |
