24 And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.



Ver. 24. An eloquent man] Et eruditum sonat et prudentem, saith Erasmus. It imports, 1. skill in the words; he could expound well: 2. good locution; he could well express his exposition. Matter in form, as they do all in nature, so also in art. Good matter well habited is more acceptable.
