Twilight Hue
Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
From what I had gathered through academics, polis as a Greek term refers to a city-state which basically references a territory consisting of land with a city in it , polis as a city-state, is more modern adaptation of the term.The Greek word for "city" in both of those verses is "polis", which Strong's Concordance defines as being "a town of greater or less size".
It's pretty close though, as the Greek term for town is poli which is more in line with what you're describing.
Most people seem to agree and share the view that Nazareth, the original, is most likely an insignificant town or hamlet during the alleged time of Jesus.
That would be all and fine except for one snag. The settlement in question seems to have had indications that it was destroyed by the Assyrians in 720 BC.
