Who this is

Apollos was an eloquent Jewish preacher from Alexandria, well versed in the Scriptures, who taught accurately about Jesus but knew only the baptism of John until Priscilla and Aquila took him aside and explained the way of God more fully. He went on to become an effective teacher in Corinth, so much so that a faction in that fractious church began claiming him as their favorite leader over Paul, a rivalry Paul directly addressed in his letters.
