1 Timothy
Background
Apollos “founded” the church of Ephesus, but he only knew about John’s the Baptist’s baptism of repentance.
Paul Priscilla and Aquila “explained the way of God to him more accurately” (Acts 18:26).
While Apollos was in Corinth, Paul went to Ephesus and baptized the disciples of Apollos/John the Baptist “in the name of the Lord Jesus” (Acts 19:5).
They did not know about the Holy Spirit, but when Paul laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit filled them and 12 men began to prophesy.
Paul stayed in Ephesus for 3 years (A.D. 46-48) before a riot cased him to leave for Macedonia, where he had already sent Timothy.
Paul circumcised Timothy.
Timothy had a Greek father, and a Jewish mother, Eunice.
Timothy’s half-Jewish heritage let Paul to circumcise him to be able to minister to Jews.
Titus, on the other hand, was a Gentile, and Paul did not circumcise Titus.
Timothy was perhaps the closest friend of Paul.
Timothy was converted on Paul’s 1st missionary journey (Acts 14), joined him on the 2nd missionary journey, and was in Ephesus during Paul’s 3rd missionary journey and after.
Paul wrote 13 letters to the churches.
Here, in approximate chronological order:
