Erastus was a companion of the apostle Paul, mentioned in several New Testament passages. He was sent by Paul, along with Timothy, from Ephesus to Macedonia (Act.19.22). In his letter to the Romans, Paul mentions that Erastus, the city treasurer, sends his greetings (Rom.16.23), indicating that he held an important position in Corinth. Later, in his second letter to Timothy, Paul writes that Erastus stayed in Corinth (2Ti.4.20). These references suggest that Erastus was a trusted associate of Paul and played a significant role in the early church.
