Paul will send Artemas or Tychicus to fill Titus-' post when he leaves for Nicopolis (doubtless the Nicopolis in Epirus). For Tychicus see 2 Timothy 4:12 *, which implies that he was not actually chosen for Crete. Of Artemas we know nothing. Zenas and Apollos may well have carried this letter to Titus. Zenas, like Arternas, is unknown: he would probably be a lawyer in the Jewish sense. Apollos appears in Acts 18:24; Acts 19:1; 1 Corinthians 1:12. For the significance of the historical allusions see Introduction, at end of § 1.

Titus 3:14. necessary uses: e.g. such hospitality as Zenas and Apollos required.
