how could he have gotten such an incomplete understanding of the gospel????
The gospel had reached Apollos by a different road from that traced in the main narrative of Acts . . . by a road, that is to say, which did not start in Jerusalem.

Alexandrian Christianity, whatever the date and circumstances of its inception may have been, was for some generations regarded as defective by the standards of Jerusalem (in the apostolic age) and Rome (in post-apostolic times).

Apollos seems to have been one of the traveling Jewish merchants who combined a readiness to give religious instruction with whatever other business took them from place to place. --FF Bruce
