Thayer's Greek Lexicon STRONGS NT 5103: Τίτιος Τίτιος, Τίτου, ὁ, the praenomen of a certain Corinthian, a Jewish proselyte, also surnamed Justus: Acts 18:7 T Tr brackets WH (see Τίτος). STRONGS NT 5103: Τίτος Τίτος (Rec.st in the subscription, Τίτος; cf. Lipsius, Gram. Unters., p. 42f; Tdf. Proleg., p. 103; Pape, Eigennamen, under the word; Winer's Grammar, § 6, 1 m.), Τίτου, ὁ, Titus, a Gentile Christian, Paul's companion in some of his journeys and assistant in Christian work: 2 Corinthians 2:13; 2 Corinthians 7:6, 13; 2 Corinthians 8:6, 16, 23; 2 Corinthians 12:18; Galatians 2:1, 3; 2 Timothy 4:10; Titus 1:4. He is not mentioned in the Book of Acts. But since Titus is the praenomen, perhaps he appears in the Acts under his second, or, if he was a Roman, under his third name; cf. Rückert on 2 Cor., p. 410. He is by no means, however, to be identified (after Wieseler, Com. ü. d. Brief a. d. Galater, p. 573f (also his Chron. d. apost. Zeit., p. 204)) with the Titus of Acts 18:7, even if the reading (of some authorities (see Tdf.'s note ad loc.)) Τίτου (see Τίτιος above) Ἰούστου be the true one. Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Of Latin origin Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Hebrew equivalents for the name Titus, as it is of Latin origin and specific to the New Testament context. Usage: The name Titus appears in the New Testament as a close companion and fellow worker of the Apostle Paul. He is mentioned in several of Paul's epistles and is the recipient of the Epistle to Titus. Context: Titus was a significant figure in the early Christian church, known for his close association with the Apostle Paul. Although not mentioned in the Acts of the Apostles, Titus is frequently referenced in Paul's letters, indicating his importance in the apostolic ministry. Titus was a Gentile convert, as noted in Galatians 2:3, where Paul mentions that Titus was not compelled to be circumcised despite being a Greek. This incident highlights the early church's struggle with the integration of Gentile believers and the question of adherence to Jewish law. Paul entrusted Titus with several critical missions. He was sent to Corinth to address issues within the church there, as seen in 2 Corinthians 7:6-7, where Paul expresses his comfort and joy at Titus's successful mission. Titus's role in Corinth was crucial in reconciling the church with Paul and in organizing the collection for the Jerusalem church (2 Corinthians 8:6, 16-17). The Epistle to Titus provides further insight into his responsibilities. Paul left Titus in Crete to "set in order what was unfinished and appoint elders in every town" (Titus 1:5, BSB). This task underscores Titus's leadership abilities and the trust Paul placed in him to establish church order and sound doctrine. Titus is last mentioned in 2 Timothy 4:10, where Paul notes that Titus has gone to Dalmatia. This brief mention suggests that Titus continued his missionary work beyond the scope of the New Testament writings. Titus's legacy is that of a faithful and effective leader in the early church, exemplifying the qualities of a true servant of Christ. His work in establishing church leadership and promoting unity among believers was instrumental in the spread of the Gospel.
