are mentioned only in Acts 1:23. "They must have been among the

brethren. What became of them afterwards, and what work they
did, are entirely unknown" (Lindsay's Acts of the Apostles).

to the synagogue, Paul held meetings and preached after he left
the synagogue (Acts 18:7).

fellow-labourer at Rome, where he wrote his Epistle to the
Colossians (Col. 4:11).
