Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Acts 18 - Introduction

Paul laboureth with his hands, and preacheth at Corinth to the Gentiles: the Lord encourageth him in a vision: he is accused before Gallio the deputy, but is dismissed: afterwards passing from city to city, he strengtheneth the disciples. Appollos being more perfectly instructed by Aquila and Priscilla, preacheth Christ with great efficacy.

Anno Domini 56.
