ACHAICUS.—The name of a member of the Church at Corinth. He was with Stephanas and Fortunatus (1Co_16:17 f.) when they visited St. Paul at Ephesus and ‘refreshed his spirit.’ Nothing more is certainly known of him. As slaves were often named from the country of their birth, it is a probable conjecture that he was a slave, born in Achaia.

A Christian of Achaia, who with Stephanas and Fortunatus was the bearer of Paul's First Epistle to the Corinthians, and recommended in it to their regard, as one of those who supplied his yearning for Christian fellowship and "refreshed his spirit" (1Co_16:17-18).

a-kā?i-kus (Ἀχαικός, Achaikós, ?belonging to Achaia?): A name honorably conferred upon L. Mummius, conqueror of Corinth and Achaia (compare CORINTH). Achaicus was one of the leaders of the Corinthian church (to be inferred from 1Co_16:15) who, visiting Paul at Ephesus with Stephanas and Fortunatus, greatly relieved the Apostle's anxiety for the Corinthian church (compare 1Co_5:1). Paul admonishes the members of the Cor church to submit to their authority (compare 1Th_5:12) and to acknowledge their work (1Co_16:15).
