Agabus:
(a locust) a Christian prophet in the apostolic age, mentioned in Acts 11:28 and Acts 21:10. He predicted (Acts 11:28) that a famine would take place in the reign of Claudius. Josephus mentions a famine which prevailed in Judea in the reign of Claudius, and swept away many of the inhabitants (In Acts 21:10 we learn that Agabus and Paul met at Caesarea some time after this.)
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
