Acts 19:1

εὑρεῖν for εὑρών with אAB. Vulg. supports this having ‘veniret … et inveniret.’

1. ἐν τῷ τὸν Ἀπολλὼ εἶναι ἐν Κορίνθῳ, while Apollos was in Corinth. The digression concerning Apollos being ended, the history now returns to St Paul. Apollos found, no doubt, that Corinth was the most effective centre for his work in Achaia, and apparently made that his head-quarters.

Παῦλον διελθόντα τὰ�, Paul having passed through the upper country. The districts alluded to are those mentioned in Acts 18:23, Galatia and Phrygia, to reach which he would also pass through Lycaonia. ἀνωτερικός signifies the upland away from the sea; here the more eastern parts of Asia Minor.

ἐλθεῖν εἰς Ἔφεσον, came to Ephesus. This he had promised to do if he could (Acts 18:21).

καὶ εὑρεῖν τινὰς μαθητάς, and found certain disciples. These men are called disciples because they were, like Apollos, to a certain extent instructed concerning Jesus, and what they already knew drew them to listen to St Paul who could teach them more.
