Trophimus

Gender: Male

Years: 60 - 66

Dictionary Text: A foster-child, an Ephesian who accompanied Paul during a part of his third missionary journey;. He was with Paul in Jerusalem, and the Jews, supposing that the apostle had brought him with him into the temple, raised a tumult which resulted in Paul’s imprisonment. In writing to Timothy, the apostle says, “Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick”. This must refer to some event not noticed in the Acts.
