Cretans

Cretans were people who lived on the Greek island called Crete. The island is in the Mediterranean Sea. Some Jewish Cretans were in Jerusalem for Pentecost. They heard the disciples speaking about God in their own language and in other different languages (see: Acts 2:11). People thought Cretans were dishonest, cruel, and did not do the things they needed to do (see: Titus 1:12).
