Man living at the time of the New Testament
Titus
A Greek believer, Paul’s “true child according to a common faith” (Titus 1:4). He went with Paul and Barnabas to Jerusalem and was not compelled to be circumcised (Galatians 2:1–3). Paul sent him to Corinth to bring the church’s response and the collection, and Paul was comforted by the news he brought (2 Corinthians 7:5–7; 8:6, 16–17). Paul left him in Crete to “set in order the things that were lacking and appoint elders in every city” (Titus 1:5).
