This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Of this Stephanas we read before, 1Co_1:16; his family was one of those few families which Paul baptized: he is here called
the first-fruits of Achaia, because (as it should seem) he was one of the first of all those who in that courtry received the gospel. He further saith of him, that he had given up himself
to the ministry of the saints, either in preaching the gospel, or (which is more probable) in the proper employment of a deacon, in relieving such amongst the saints (whether of that or other churches) as were in want.
