Euangelistes denotes a person identified with, appointed among, or charged to carry out evangelistic work.

The attested verses present euangelistes as a designation for a person: Philip is identified by it, some are given as such among other persons, and Timothy is told to do its work in connection with ministry.

   In Acts 21:8, the genitive singular form identifies Philip in the clause that the travelers entered his house; the APB renders him “Philip the evangelist.” In Ephesians 4:11, the accusative plural form names such persons among apostles, prophets, shepherds, and teachers, while 2 Timothy 4:5 directs Timothy to do the work associated with the designation and to fulfill his ministry.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB explicitly uses “evangelist” for Philip in Acts 21:8, for a group in Ephesians 4:11, and in the phrase “do the work of an evangelist” in 2 Timothy 4:5. These renderings confirm the clauses' presentation without establishing finer distinctions.
