What did Priscilla and Aquila do when Apollos knew only John's baptism?
Priscilla and Aquila took Apollos into their home, likely over a meal, and explained the way of God more completely and accurately. They shared the fuller revelation concerning Christ that Paul had taught, so Apollos moved beyond John's baptism and later powerfully convinced the Jews from the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ.
Les explains that Paul had just unloaded the Gospel of grace on Priscilla and Aquila, and they did not forget it. So when Apollos arrived knowing only the baptism of John, these two people acted. Les suggests they took him home for dinner, and as they sat across the dinner table, they unloaded on that eloquent man. Scripture then says Priscilla and Aquila expounded the way of God more completely or accurately. Later, in Acts 18:28, Apollos mightily convinced the Jews publicly, showing by the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ. Les notes that Apollos then accomplished great things, followed in Paul's footsteps, and at Corinth held forth with eloquence and capability in opening the Scriptures.
And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly.
