Commentary

Commentary on Romans 16:3

Theological / Devotional

Greet. Gr. aspazomai. The same word is also frequently translated “salute” in this chapter.

Priscilla. Textual evidence attests (cf. p. 10) the reading “Prisca,” of which form “Priscilla” is the diminutive. Aquila, her husband, was a Jew of Pontus. When the Jews were expelled from Rome by Claudius, Priscilla and Aquila came to Corinth, where Paul found them and where they were converted (Acts 18:1-3). Later they moved to Ephesus (Acts 18:18, 19, 26; 1 Cor. 16:19). At the time of the writing of this epistle they were back in Rome, but later they seem to have returned to Ephesus (2 Tim. 4:19).

Helpers. Gr. sunergoi, “fellow workers.”
