Πόπλιος. Ramsay (7 απ, p. 343) points out that Πόπλιος (Ac 2871.) is the Greek form of the /vaexomen Publius, and that though it is not usual that an official should be called by his praenomen simply, ‘‘ Publius’’ may have been so well known among the peasantry that Luke adopted their familiar mode of addressing him.
