New Testament
Carpus
A believer in Troas who hosted the Apostle Paul and kept his cloak, books, and parchments.
Carpus is mentioned only once in 2 Timothy 4:13, where Paul instructs Timothy to retrieve personal items left at his home in Troas. His role highlights the practical support and hospitality provided to the Apostle during his missionary travels. While little else is known about him, his inclusion demonstrates the network of faithful individuals who assisted Paul during his ministry.
