People in the Bible

New Testament

Hermogenes

An individual in Asia who abandoned the Apostle Paul during his final Roman imprisonment.

Hermogenes is mentioned only once in 2 Timothy 1:15, where Paul notes that he, along with Phygelus, turned away from the apostle during his time of trial. His abandonment serves as a somber contrast to the faithfulness of Onesiphorus, highlighting the isolation Paul faced near the end of his life. The text provides no further details regarding his background or subsequent actions.
