Troph'imus. (nutritious). Both Trophimus and Tychicus accompanied Paul, from Macedonia as far as Asia, but Tychicus seems to have remained there, while Trophimus proceeded, with the apostle to Jerusalem. (A.D. 54). There, he was the innocent cause of the tumult, in which St. Paul was apprehended. Acts 21:27-29.

From this passage we learn two new facts, namely, that Trophimus was a Gentile, and that he was a native of Trophimus was probably one brethren who, with Titus, conveyed the second Epistle to the Corinthians. 2 Corinthians 8:16-24. See Tychicus.
