Meaning: crown

A member of the church at Corinth, whose family were among those the apostle had baptized (1Cor 1:16; 1Cor 16:15ff). He has been supposed by some to have been the "jailer of Philippi" (comp. Acts 16:33). The First Epistle to the Corinthians was written from Philippi some six years after the jailer's conversion, and he was with the apostle there at that time.
