Apollos () was a 1st-century Alexandrian Jewish Christian mentioned several times in the New Testament. A contemporary and colleague of Paul the Apostle, he played an important role in the early development of the churches of Ephesus and Corinth.

==Biblical account== ===Acts of the Apostles=== Apollos is first mentioned as a Christian preacher who had come to Ephesus (probably in AD&nbsp;52 or 53), where he is described as "being fervent in spirit: he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, though he knew only the baptism of John". Priscilla and Aquila, a Jewish Christian couple who had come to Ephesus with the Apostle Paul, instructed Apollos: When Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God more adequately.
