Where they appear

  1. Apollos at Ephesus

    Apollos, an Alexandrian Jew who was eloquent and mighty in the Scriptures, came to Ephesus and taught accurately about Jesus, though he knew only John’s baptism. When Priscilla and Aquila heard him speak boldly in the synagogue, they took him aside and explained the way of God to him more accurately.

  2. Apollos at Corinth

    When Apollos decided to cross over to Achaia, the brothers encouraged him and wrote to the disciples to receive him. In Achaia he greatly helped those who had believed, powerfully refuting the Jews in public and showing from the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ.
