Erastus of Corinth was a priest and one of the Seventy Disciples identified in the New Testament. Based in Corinth, he is described in the Epistle to the Romans as a city treasurer or a manager of household affairs. Some traditions suggest he may have served as a deacon or steward in Jerusalem and Paneas. While some scholars debate his specific identity or level of faith, he is traditionally honored as an apostle and a significant figure within the early Christian community.
