Acts18:12
12 ¶ And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgement-seat▪
This Gallio was Brother to that deservedly famous Seneca, (who was Tutor to Nero) and hath great commendations given him, as being a man of an excellent disposition, beloved by all men, an enemy to all vice, and especially a hater of flattery.
This man was Proconsul,
Governing Achaia and all Greece absolutely; or with the power of a Consul.
Wicked men in their evil deeds are unanimous▪ for Satan knows that his kingdom would not stand, if it were once divided.
