Apollos is regarded as a saint by several Christian churches, including the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod, which hold a commemoration for him, together with saints Aquila and Priscilla, on 13 February. Apollos is considered one of the 70 apostles [20] and his feast day is December 8 in the Eastern Orthodox church.
Since 1 Corinthians discusses a crisis deriving from a conflict between the followers of Apollos and the followers of Cephas (possibly the apostle Peter), it can be inferred that Apollos accompanied Priscilla and Aquila when they returned to Corinth. This happened before 54, when Claudius died and the expulsion of the Jews from Rome was lifted.
Zenas the Lawyer (Ancient Greek: ΖηναΎ¶ς) was a first-century Christian mentioned in Paul the Apostle's Epistle to Titus in the New Testament.
