1. A Macedonian who accompanied Paul in his travels, and whose life was in danger from the mob at Ephesus. ( Acts 19:29 ) (A.D. 54.)
2. Of Derbe. He went with Paul from Corinth in his last journey to Jerusalem. ( Acts 20:4 ) (A.D. 54.)
3. Of Corinth, whom Paul baptized and who was his host in his second journey in that city. ( 1 Corinthians 1:14 ; Romans 16:23 ) (These are supposed by some to be only one person.)
