What did Apollos do after Priscilla and Aquila explained the way of God more accurately to him?

Having gained from Priscilla and Aquila, Apollos mightily convinced the Jews publicly, showing by the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ. He accomplished great things and later ministered at Corinth, holding forth with eloquence and a capability of opening the Scriptures.

Les explains that Apollos had known only the baptism of John, so Priscilla and Aquila, perhaps taking him home for dinner, explained the way of God more accurately. Then, as Acts 18:28 records, Apollos mightily convinced the Jews publicly, showing by the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ—not just using the Old Testament Scriptures, but with what he had gained from Priscilla and Aquila. The context adds that Apollos accomplished great things and later ministered in Corinth, holding forth with eloquence and a capability of opening the Scriptures.

Acts 18:28

For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.
