How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, which uses the phrase to equip for the verb προπέμπω. Other translations like the KJV and ASV use bring or set forward, emphasizing the act of sending Zenas and Apollos on their way.
The translations differ in their rendering of the phrase concerning what Zenas and Apollos should lack. The BSB states everything they need, while the YLT states that nothing to them may be lacking, and the BBE uses be in need of nothing, highlighting the necessity of support for their journey.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb of the verse is πρόπεμψον, do equip, which governs the action of assisting Zenas and Apollos. This main clause is complemented by a subordinate clause that expresses purpose, introduced by ἵνα, so that, indicating the intended outcome of their support.
The structure includes noun phrases for both Zenas and Apollos, with the adverbial σπουδαίως modifying the verb, indicating the manner in which they should be equipped. The sentence is arranged to emphasize the action of equipping and the purpose behind it.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In Titus 3:13, the Greek word ἵνα (hina) is used to convey the meaning of 'so that.' This word appears frequently in the Septuagint, where it often translates the Hebrew word מַ֫עַן (maʿan), which means 'for the sake of' or 'on account of.' This choice emphasizes the purpose behind the action of equipping Zenas and Apollos.
The word μηδὲν (mēdeis), meaning 'nothing,' also appears in the Septuagint. It translates the Hebrew אַל (al), which is used for negation. This reinforces the idea that Zenas and Apollos should lack nothing in their preparations, highlighting the importance of their readiness.

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(13) Bring Zenas the lawyer.—A name contracted, as it seems, from Zenodorus. The term “lawyer” might possibly indicate that this friend of Paul’s was a Roman jurist, but it is more likely that the law in which he was an expert was that of Moses. Hippolytus numbers him among the seventy disciples, and relates how in after years he was Bishop of Diospolis. He is never mentioned by name in the New Testament, except in this place. And Apollos.—This famous teacher appears often in the New Testament records, in the Acts and several of the Epistles. A distinguished Alexandrian scholar and a disciple of John the Baptist, he was converted to Christianity by the agency of the devoted Priscilla and…

CambridgeThe Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges13. Bring Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their journey] The verb ‘bring on their journey’ is literally ‘send forward,’ and so Vulg. here ‘praemitte’; but in the other eight places of its use in N.T. ‘deduco’ is used, that is, ‘conduct,’ ‘take them a certain part of the way.’ So in old provincial English ‘I will send you a mile,’ meaning ‘accompany you.’ R.V. in four places has ‘bring on the way,’ in five, ‘set forward on the journey;’ but in only one, Acts 21:5, does the context require that the ‘accompanying’ should be prominent, ‘they all with wives and children brought us on our way till we were out of the city.’ Here set forward with less thought of bringing (A.V.) seems…

Ζηνᾶς is a proper name, Zenas, likely a contraction of Ζηνόδωρος. It appears in the New Testament in Titus 3:13. The name is noted for its potential meaning related to being 'Jove-given.' There are no significant disagreements among the lexicons regarding this entry.
Ζηνᾶς. This proper name (Tit 315), probably a contraction for Ζηνόδωρος (Lightfoot on Col 415), appears in a late Roman wall-scribbling at Magnesia, Magn 323.

ze'-nas (Zenas (Tit 3:13); the name in full would probably be Zenodorus, literally, meaning "the gift of Zeus"):
1. A Jewish Lawyer:
Paul calls Zenas "the lawyer." The meaning of this is, that, previous to his becoming a Christian, he had been a Jewish lawyer. The lawyers were that class of Jewish teachers who were specially learned in the Mosaic Law, and who interpreted that Law, and taught it to the people.
They are met with again and again in the Gospels, where they frequently came into contact with Christ, usually in a manner hostile to Him. For example, "A certain lawyer stood up and made trial of him, saying, Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" (Lu 10:25). our Lord replied to him on his own ground, asking, "What is written in the law? how readest thou?"…
Zenas
A disciple called “the lawyer,” whom Paul wished Titus to bring with him (Titus 3:13). Nothing more is known of him.
a believer, and, as may be inferred from the context, a preacher of the gospel, who is mentioned in (Titus 3:13) in connection with Apollos. He is further described as "the lawyer." It is impossible to determine whether Zenas was a Roman jurisconsult or a Jewish doctor.
A pious lawyer, and a friend of Paul, who, writing from Nicopolis during the last year of his life, commends him and Apollos, then at Crete on a journey, to the kind offices of Titus, Ti 3:13. His name is Greek, and his profession may have been Greek civil law, rather than Jewish law.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word νομικός (i.e., *nomikos*) is derived from νόμος (law) and means 'pertaining to law' or 'learned in the law.' It refers to a lawyer or legal expert, particularly in the context of the Mosaic law, as seen in verses like Matthew 22:35 and Luke 10:25. The lexicons agree that it encompasses both an adjective and a noun form.

lo'-yer (nomikos, "according or pertaining to law," i.e. legal; as noun, "an expert in law," "about the law," "lawyer" (Mt 22:35; Lu 7:30; 10:25; 11:45,46,52; 14:3; Tit 3:13)): The work of the "lawyers," frequently spoken of as "scribes," also known as "doctors" of the law (Lu 2:46 margin), was first of all that of jurists. Their business was threefold:
(1) to study and interpret the law;
(2) to instruct the Hebrew youth in the law;
(3) to decide questions of the law. The first two they did as scholars and teachers, the last as advisers in some court.
Lawyer
Among the Jews, was one versed in the laws of Moses, which he expounded in the schools and synagogues (Matt. 22:35; Luke 10:25). The functions of the “lawyer” and “scribe” were identical. (See DOCTOR.)
The title "lawyer" is generally supposed to be equivalent to the title "scribe." The scribe expounded the law in the synagogues and schools. [See SCRIBES]

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef.

The Greek word Ἀπολλῶς refers to Apollos, likely a shortened form of Ἀπολλώνιος. It denotes an Alexandrian Jew who became a Christian teacher associated with Paul. The name appears in several New Testament passages, including Acts 18:24 and 1 Corinthians 1:12. There is some debate among lexicographers about its derivation and whether it refers to a single individual.
᾿Απολλώς [acc. to some, contr. fr. ᾿Απολλώνιος, W. 102 (97) ; ace. to others, the ὁ is lengthened, cf. Fick, Griech. Personennamen, p. xxi.], gen. τώ (cf. B. 20 (18) sq.; [W62 (61)]), accus. τώ (Acts xix. 1) and -ών (1 Co. iv. 6 T Tr WH; Tit. ii. 13 T WH; cf. [WH. App. p. 157]; Kiihner i. p. 315), ὁ, Apollos, an Alexandrian Jew who became a Christian and a teacher of Christianity, attached to the apostle Paul: Acts xviii. 24; xix. 1; 1 Co. i. 12; iii. 4 sqq. 22; iv. 6; xvi. 12; Tit. iii. 13.
᾿Απολλώς has σϑη. ᾿Απολλῶτος in an inscr. from the Serapeum at Memphis. See /Pretstgke 1917, who accents the nom. ᾿Απολλῶς : since it is probably short for ᾿Απολλώνιος (which occurs in Codex Bezae), this accords with analogy. The name can be quoted from Osty 1319 (B.C. 7), 1577 (A.D. 132), Preisighe 1113 (A.D. 147-8), P Lond g2944,% (ii/iii A.D.) (ΞΞ ΠῚ. p. 42 f.), 2b. 12338 (A.D. 211) (ΞΞ 111. p. 58), where the editors would like to make ᾿Απολλῶς gen., and P Goodsp 37,1420 (a.p. 143) ᾿Απολλῶτι. exx., Without seeking for more we may observe that ᾿Απολλώνιος was an extraordinarily common name, no fewer than 39 persons bearing it in the inscrr. of Sy//.

a-pol'-os (Apollos, the short form of Apollonius): Apollos was a Jew of Alexandrian race (Ac 18:24) who reached Ephesus in the summer of 54 AD, while Paul was on his third missionary journey, and there he "spake and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus" (Ac 18:25). That he was eminently fitted for the task is indicated by the fact of his being a "learned man," "mighty in the scriptures," "fervent in spirit," "instructed in the way of the Lord" (Ac 18:24,25). His teaching was however incomplete in that he knew "only the baptism of John" (Ac 18:25), and this has given rise to some controversy. According to Blass, his information was derived from a written gospel…
Apollos
A Jew “born at Alexandria,” a man well versed in the Scriptures and eloquent (Acts 18:24; R.V., “learned”). He came to Ephesus (about A.D. 49), where he spake “boldly” in the synagogue (18:26), although he did not know as yet that Jesus of Nazareth was the Messiah. Aquila and Priscilla instructed him more perfectly in “the way of God”, i.e., in the knowledge of Christ. He then proceeded to Corinth, where he met Paul (Acts 18:27; 19:1). He was there very useful in watering the good seed Paul had sown (1 Cor. 1:12), and in gaining many to Christ. His disciples were much attached to him (1 Cor. 3:4-7, 22). He was with Paul at Ephesus when he wrote the First Epistle to…
(given by Apollo) a Jew from Alexandria, eloquent (which may also mean learned) and mighty in the Scriptures; one instructed in the way of the Lord, according to the imperfect view of the disciples of John the Baptist, (Acts 18:24) but on his coming to Ephesus during a temporary absence of St. Paul, A.D. 54, more perfectly taught by Aquila and Priscilla. After this he became a preacher of the gospel, first in Achaia and then in Corinth. (Acts 18:27; 19:1) When the apostle wrote his First Epistle to the Corinthians, Apollos was with or near him, (1 Corinthians 16:12) probably at Ephesus in A.D. 57. He is mentioned but once more in the New Testament, in (Titus 3:13) After…
A Jew of Alexandria, a learned and eloquent man, who through the Scriptures and the ministry of John the Baptist became a Christian. He visited Ephesus about A. D. 54, and publicly proclaimed his faith in Christ; whereupon he was further instructed in gospel truth. Passing thence into Achia, he preached with great power and success, especially among the Jews, Ac 19:1 1Co 3:6. His character was not unlike that of Paul; they were equally grieved at the dissension of the Corinthians, and at those personal partialities which led many away from Christ, 1Co 3:4-22 16:12; and they cooperated to the end in serving him, Tit 3:13. Jerome is of opinion that Apollos afterwards returned to…

The Greek word ἵνα is primarily a conjunction meaning 'in order that' or 'that,' indicating purpose or intention. It can also function as an adverb of place, meaning 'where' or 'whither.' In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, often introducing clauses that express purpose, such as in Matthew 1:22. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement on its meanings or usages.
ἵνα, I. an adv. of Place. fr. Hom. down, esp. in the poets; a. where; in what place. b. to what place; whither. Of the former signification C. F. A. Fritzsche (on Mt. p. 836; differently in Fritzschiorum Opusce. p. 186 sqq-.) thought he had found two examples in bibl. Greek, and H. A. W. Meyer agrees with him. The first viz. iva μὴ φυσιοῦσθε, 1 Co. iv. 6, they explain thus: where (i. e. in which state of things viz. when ye have leatned from my example to think humbly of yourselves) the one is not exalted to the other’s disadvantage; the second, iva αὐτοὺς ζηλοῦτε, Gal. iv. 17, thus: where ye zealously court them; but see II. 1 d. below. “ iva I. a final Conjunction (for from local direction, indicated by the adverb, the transition was easy te mental direction or intention) denoting pur pose and end: to the intent that; to the end that, in order that; ἵνα pn, that not, lest; it is used…

so (co', although the Hebrew might be pointed cewe'; Assyrian Sib'u; Septuagint Segor, Soa; Manetho, Seuechos; Latin Sevechus; Herodotus (ii. 137 ff), Sabakon): In all probability the "Sabaeo" of Herodotus, the Shabaka, who founded the Ethiopian dynasty, the XXVth of Egyptian kings. His date is given as 715-707 BC (Flinders Petrie, History of Egypt, III, 281 ff), but we may suppose that before his accession to the throne he was entitled to be designated king, as being actually regent. To this So, Hoshea, king of Israel, made an appeal for assistance to enable him to throw off the yoke of the Assyrian Shalmaneser IV (2Ki 17:3). But Hoshea's submission to So brought him no advantage, for Shalmaneser came up throughout all the land and laid siege to Samaria. Not long after the fall of Samaria, So ventured upon an eastern campaign, and…
So
(Nubian, Sabako), an Ethiopian king who brought Egypt under his sway. He was bribed by Hoshea to help him against the Assyrian monarch Shalmaneser (2 Kings 17:4). This was a return to the policy that had been successful in the reign of Jeroboam I.
"So, king of Egypt," is once mentioned in the Bible -- (2 Kings 17:4) So has been identified by different writers with the first and second kings of the Ethiopian twenty-fifth dynasty, called by Manetho, Sabakon (Shebek) and Sebichos (Shebetek).
King of Egypt, made an alliance with Hoshea king of Israel, and promised him assistance; but was unable to prevent Shalmaneser king of Assyria from taking Samaria and subverting the kingdom, B. C. 721, 2Ki 17:4. See PHARAOH.
So is believed to have been the Servetus or Sabaco II of secular history, the second king of the Ethiopian or twenty-fifth dynasty, and the predecessor of Trihakah. A singular fact has been brought to light by the recent explorations at Nineveh, corroborating the Scripture record the more forcibly, because unexpected and direct. The Bible shows that Egypt and Assyria, though remote, were often in conflict during the height of the Assyrian ruins power, and that So was at war with Shalmaneser. After war comes the treaty of peace; and as the Bible prepares us to suppose such treaties were made, the Assyrian ruins…

μηδείς is built from μή (not) and εἷς (one), meaning no one or nothing. It appears frequently in the New Testament, often to emphasize absence or negation, as seen in verses like Matthew 8:4 and Acts 4:17. The lexicons do not present significant disagreement on its usage.

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.

λείπω, transliterated as leipo, is a verb meaning to leave or forsake, and can also imply being left behind or lacking something. It appears in various contexts, including the New Testament, where it is used to describe being wanting or deficient (e.g., James 1:4, 5; Luke 18:22). The word is built from a root that conveys the idea of absence or deficiency, and its usage spans both active and passive forms.
λείπω; [2 aor. subj. 3 pers. sing. Airy, Tit. iii. 13 TWH mrg.; pres. pass. λείπομαι; fr. Hom. down]; 1. trans. to leave, leave behind, forsake; pass. to be left behind (prop. by one’s rival in a race, hence), a. to lag, be inferior: ἐν μηδενί, Jas. i. 4 (Hdt. 7, 8, 1); [al. associate this ex. with the two under b.]. b. to be destitute of, to lack: with gen. of the thing, Jas. i. 5; ii. 15, (Soph., Plat., al.). 2. intrans. to be wanting ΟἹ absent, to fail: λείπει τί τινι, LK. xviii. 22; Tit. iii. 13, (Polyb. 10, 18, 8; al.); τὰ λείποντα, the things that remain [so Justin Mart. apol. 1, 52, ef. 32; but al. are wanting], Tit. i. 5. [Comp.: ἀπο-, δια-, éx-, ἐπι-, κατα-, ἐν-κατα-, Tept-, ὑπο-λείπω.]
λείπω. P Amh IT. 3613 (c, B.c. 135) λείπω τε τὴν ὑπερβολήν, “1 do not exaggerate” (Edd.), Pretsigke 276 τάδ᾽ ἔλυπον ᾿Ατταλάχοις Ἡρακλῆ. As showing that the distinction between the active and the middle of the verb was carefully preserved, it may be noted that “‘ the invariable expression in Anatolian epigraphy, even of the humblest class expressed in the worst Greek, is λείπειν βίον, not λείπεσθαι" (W. M. Ramsay Exp VII. vi. p. 548f.). For the act. in the intrans. sense of “am lacking,” as in Lk 182%, we may cite Epict. ii. 14. 19 τί σοι λείπει ; and for the middle construed with ἐν, as in Jas 14, cf. Prezsigke 620° (B.C. 97-96) where a temple that has received other honours is declared to be wanting in the right of asylum—Actrrec Oar δὲ ἐν τῷ μὴ εἶναι ἄσυλον. The verb is a λέγε. techn. in accounts to denote a deficiency, e.g. P Par 5911 (B.c. 160) (= Witkowski®, p. 76) λ(είπεται)…
