24 Now a Jew named ^lApollos, a native of Alexandria, came to Ephesus. He was an ^meloquent man, competent in the Scriptures. 25 He had been instructed in the way of the Lord. And being fervent in spirit,¹ he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, though he knew only the ⁿbaptism of John. 26 He began to speak boldly in the synagogue, but when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God more accurately.
