Crispus, the synagogue leader Crispus was a prominent figure in the Jewish community of Corinth, serving as the leader of the synagogue. The Greek word for "synagogue leader" is "archisynagogos," indicating a person of significant authority and respect within the Jewish religious structure. His conversion to Christianity is significant because it demonstrates the power of the Gospel to reach even those deeply entrenched in Jewish tradition. Historically, this conversion would have been a bold statement, as it could lead to social ostracism. Crispus's acceptance of Christ highlights the transformative power of faith and the breaking down of barriers between Jewish and Gentile believers. and his whole household believed in the Lord and many of the Corinthians who heard the message believed and were baptized Many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized.--The tense of the two verbs implies a process going on daily for an undefined period. Among the converts we may note Gaius, or Caius, probably a man of higher social position than others, who made his house the meeting-place of the Church, and at St. Paul's second visit received him as a guest (Romans 16:23), and the household of Stephanas, who, as "the first-fruits of Achaia," must have been among the earliest converts (1Corinthians 16:15). These also St. Paul baptised himself (1Corinthians 1:14-15). Fortunatus and Achaicus, and Chloe, a prominent female convert (1Corinthians 1:11), with Quartus, and Erastus the chamberlain of the city (Romans 16:23), and Epaenetus, also among the "first-fruits of Achaia" (Romans 16:5), may also be counted among the disciples made now or soon afterwards. . . . Verse 8. - Ruler for chief ruler, A.V. (ἀρχισυνάγωγος, as in Acts 13:15); in for on, A.V. Crispus (a common Roman name) was one of the very few whom St. Paul himself baptized, probably on account of his important position as ruler of the synagogue, as we learn from 1 Corinthians 1:14. With all his house (comp. Acts 16:33, 34). Many of the Corinthians; i.e. of the Greeks and Romans, who composed the population of the city. It is seldom that we have the names of so many converts preserved as we have of this Achaian mission. Besides Crispus and Gaius, we know of Epaenetus and Stephanas, who would seem to have been converted together (Romans 16:5; 1 Corinthians 16:15); and probably also Fortunatus and Achaicus (1 Corinthians 16:17). Gains, from his name (Caius) and his salutation to the Church at Rome, was probably a Roman. Fortunatus and Achaicus also be-belonged, perhaps, to the Roman colony. Here too were many heathen converts (1 Corinthians 12:2), though mostly of the lower rank (1 Corinthians 1:26-29).Parallel Commentaries ...
