A “prophet,” probably one of the seventy disciples of Christ. He prophesied at Antioch of an approaching famine ([Acts 11:27](/acts#Acts.11.27), [28](/acts#Acts.11.28)). Many years afterwards he met Paul at Caesarea, and warned him of the bonds and affliction that awaited him at Jerusalem should he persist in going thither ([Acts 21:10-12](/acts#Acts.21.10)).
