Zenas (G2494) is a shortened form of Zenodoros ('gift of Zeus') — a Greek name carried by the man Paul calls 'the lawyer' (nomikos) in Titus 3:13. Paul instructs Titus to 'do your best to speed Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their way; see that they lack nothing.' This brief mention reveals a network of traveling Christian workers in the early church — legal professionals who placed their skills in service of the gospel.
The brief appearance of Zenas in the NT illuminates the breadth of early church ministry. A lawyer by profession, yet fully invested in the mission of the Gospel. He travels with Apollos — the eloquent Alexandrian preacher (Acts 18:24-28) — carrying correspondence and likely the letter to Titus itself. Paul's instruction to care for Zenas's needs reflects the hospitality ethic of the early church (3 John 5-8) and the principle that those who serve the Gospel deserve support (1 Cor 9:14). God uses every vocation — including legal expertise — in His mission.
