Notes
Zenas and Apollos were involved in spreading the good news about Jesus, and they might have been the ones who delivered this letter to Titus.
Zenas was probably an expert in Roman law or a Roman jurist (the same word for lawyer is in Luke 7:30; 10:25). His Greek name (which means “gift of Zeus”) makes it unlikely that he was an expert in Jewish law.
Apollos is presumably the same man as in Acts 18:24; 19:1; 1 Corinthians 1:12; 3:4–6, 22; 4:6; 16:12.
everything they need: See 1 Timothy 3:2; 3 John 1:5–8; compare Romans 15:24; 1 Corinthians 16:6, 11; 2 Corinthians 1:16.
