Giuseppe Ricciotti suggests that “[Apollos ’] colorful language and his high - flown allegories had won him the admiration of many who preferred him to Paul, an unpretentious and unrefined orator. ”
Giuseppe Ricciotti arvab, et „tänu ilmekale keelele ja kõrgelennulisele mõistukõnele imetlesid [Apollost] paljud, kes eelistasid teda Paulusele, tagasihoidlikule ja tahumatule oraatorile ”.
