Bible Note: Word Study ... Mimetes, Mathetes ................. 1 Corinthians 11:1 does not say Luke was a disciple/ a follower of Paul. The word is Mimetes (cf 1Co 4:16; Eph 5:1; 1Th 1:6, 2:14; Heb 6:12). He is talking to the Corinthian not Luke. Mathetes is the word for disciple, and I don't think is related to Mimetes. Just because someone was with Paul, does not make them a disciple. Searcher |
