Apollos Speaks Boldly in Ephesus
24 Now a Jew named
1Apollos, a native of Alexandria, came to Ephesus. He was an eloquent man,
2competent in the Scriptures.
25
He had been instructed in
3the way of the Lord. And
4being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, though he knew only
5the baptism of John.
26
He began to speak boldly in the synagogue, but when
6Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him and explained to him
7the way of God more accurately.
27
And when he wished to cross to
8Achaia,
9the brothers encouraged him and
10wrote to the disciples to welcome him. When he arrived,
11he greatly helped those who through grace had believed,
28
for he powerfully refuted the Jews in public, showing by the Scriptures
12that the Christ was Jesus.
