Description
Priscilla (/prɪˈsɪlə/ Greek: Πρίσκιλλα, Priskilla) and Aquila (/ˈækwɪlə/; Greek: Ἀκύλας, Akylas) were a first century Christian missionary married couple described in the New Testament and traditionally listed among the Seventy Disciples. They lived, worked, and traveled with the Apostle Paul, who described them as his “fellow workers in Christ Jesus” (Romans 16:3 NASB).
Priscilla and Aquila are described in the New Testament as providing a presence that strengthened the early Christian churches. Paul was generous in his recognition and acknowledgment of his indebtedness to them (Rom. 16:3-4). Together, they are credited with instructing Apollos, a major evangelist of the first century, and “[explaining] to him the way of God more accurately” (Acts 18:26).
It is thought by some[citation needed] to be possible, in light of her apparent prominence, that Priscilla held the office of presbyter[citation needed] . She also is thought by some to be the anonymous author of the Epistle to the Hebrews.
