Commentary on Romans 16:14

Theological / Devotional

Asyncritus. The five persons mentioned in this verse are not elsewhere identified, nor is the reason for their grouping disclosed.

The brethren. This refers, perhaps, to another Christian congregation meeting somewhere in Rome (cf. vs. 5, 15). Many of the names in this chapter also occur more or less frequently in inscriptions relating to the membership of Caesar’s household. The general coincidence of names is significant in the light of Paul’s mention of the saints “of Caesar’s household” in Phil. 4:22.
