For they had seen before with him in the city Trophimus an Ephesian, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple. 这话是因他们曾看见以弗所人特罗非摩,同保罗在城里,以为保罗带他进了殿。
The Ephesian believers did not know the Holy Spirit before being baptized in the name of Jesus, though they had believed in Him. 以弗所人的信徒虽然相信耶稣,在奉他的名受洗之前,他们并不知道有圣灵的存在。
Paul did not want the Ephesian women to teach because they didn't yet have enough knowledge or experience. 保罗不允许以弗所的女人讲道是因为她们还没有足够的知识和属灵的经历。
There seems to have been some very faithful servants of Christ in the Ephesian church. 特别是在以弗所的教会,更有很多忠心事主的信徒。
But at the next Festival he made himself an Ephesian, being bribed to do so by the Ephesian people. 但是,在下次节,他把自己的以弗所,被收买这样做的以弗所人。
Paul says the fallen ones are the Ephesian believers, including himself and his co-workers. 保罗说,那达不到标准的是以弗所信徒,也包括他自己和他的同工。
