Archip´pus, a Christian minister, whom St. Paul calls his 'fellow-soldier' in Philemon 1:2, and whom he exhorts to renewed activity in Colossians 4:17. From the latter reference it would seem that Archippus had exercised the office of Evangelista sometimes at Ephesus, sometimes elsewhere; and that he finally resided at Colosse, and there discharged the office of presiding presbyter or bishop when St. Paul wrote to the Colossian church.
