         Comments: In {S:04402704000036} (the only occurrence of ἀρτέμων in the NT) the reference may be to the foresail, that is, a relatively small sail toward the prow of the ship. A sail may be described in some languages as ‘a piece of cloth to make the ship move’ or ‘cloth on the ship to catch the wind.’
