Definition: "Anycerean" in the Bible means "a place of refuge, a fortress, or a dwelling." It refers to the city of Jerusalem during Jesus' time as he was imprisoned there, but it also implies a refuge for Jewish Christians who sought refuge from persecution and oppression. The term is used in context with the story of Jesus's being crucified on a cross and his body being raised up again, which led to the building of churches and communities like the one under "Ancyrean."
