Senses in use

  1. Personal name in narrative references · dominant

    In Acts 20:4, the nominative singular form occurs in a list of people who accompanied him; the APB renders the list with “Tychicus and Trophimus.” In Acts 21:29 and 2 Timothy 4:20, the accusative singular form identifies the person seen in the city and the person left in Miletus; the APB renders “Trophimus the Ephesian” and “Trophimus I left in Miletus.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name directly in all three verses: in a companion list, in a report of someone seen in the city, and in a notice that he was left in Miletus. These renderings confirm the person reference rather than define the name.
