People's Bible Notes for 1 Corinthians 1:16


1Co 1:16 I baptized also the household of Stephanas. This household was "the first fruits of Achaia" (1Co 16:15); Stephanas was one of the three Corinthian brethren then visiting Paul at Ephesus (1Co 16:17). There is no proof that this, or any other household named in Scripture, contained infants, but there is proof that most of them did not. "The household" does not mean the same as "the family", but those dwelling in the house; often the servants only.
