Commentary on Colossians 4:11

Theological / Devotional

Jesus ... Justus. This is the only mention of this name in the Bible, although the name Justus appears in two other instances (Acts 1:23 ; 18:7).

Of the circumcision. That is, Jews. Here the term refers to Jewish Christians. The phrase should be connected with the following sentences — of the circumcision, only the three mentioned are his fellow laborers, and a comfort to him.
