Overview
Zenas is mentioned only once in Scripture as a lawyer (likely trained in Jewish law) whom Paul commended to Titus. Paul instructed Titus to diligently help Zenas and Apollos on their journey, ensuring they lacked nothing. This brief reference illustrates the early church's responsibility to support fellow believers in ministry and travel.
Key Scriptures
"When you send off Zenas the lawyer and Apollos, see that they lack nothing." (Titus 3:13, ESV)
"The Lord has commanded that those who proclaim the gospel should get their living by the gospel." (1 Corinthians 9:14, ESV)
Application
Consider how your local church can practically support believers called to ministry or travel, recognizing that Christian hospitality and material assistance are spiritual responsibilities.
