[[#Verse 03.]] Greet Prisca and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus,  [[#Verse 04.]] who risked their own necks for my life. Not only I, but all the churches of the Gentiles are grateful to them.  [[#Verse 05.]] Also greet the church in their house. Greet my dear friend Epenetus, who was the first convert to Christ in the province of Asia.  [[#Verse 06.]] Greet Mary, who has worked very hard for you. [[#Verse 07.]] Greet Andronicus and Junia, my compatriots and my fellow prisoners. They are well known to the apostles, and they were in Christ before me.  [[#Verse 08.]] Greet Ampliatus, my dear friend in the Lord.  [[#Verse 09.]] Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Christ, and my good friend Stachys.  [[#Verse 10.]] Greet Apelles, who is approved in Christ. Greet those who belong to the household of Aristobulus.  [[#Verse 11.]] Greet Herodion, my compatriot. Greet those in the household of Narcissus who are in the Lord.  [[#Verse 12.]] Greet Tryphena and Tryphosa, laborers in the Lord. Greet my dear friend Persis, who has worked hard in the Lord.  [[#Verse 13.]] Greet Rufus, chosen in the Lord, and his mother who was also a mother to me.  [[#Verse 14.]] Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers and sisters with them.  [[#Verse 15.]] Greet Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the believers who are with them.  [[#Verse 16.]] Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ greet you. [[#Verse 17.]] Now I urge you, brothers and sisters, to watch out for those who create dissensions and obstacles contrary to the teaching that you learned. Avoid them!  [[#Verse 18.]] For these are the kind who do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By their smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of the naive.  [[#Verse 19.]] Your obedience is known to all and thus I rejoice over you. But I want you to be wise in what is good and innocent in what is evil.  [[#Verse 20.]] The God of peace will quickly crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you. [[#Verse 21.]]Timothy, my fellow worker, greets you; so do Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater, my compatriots.  [[#Verse 22.]] I, Tertius, who am writing this letter, greet you in the Lord.  [[#Verse 23.]] Gaius, who is host to me and to the whole church, greets you. Erastus the city treasurer and our brother Quartus greet you. [[#Verse 25.]] Now to him who is able to strengthen you according to my gospel and the proclamation of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery that had been kept secret for long ages,  [[#Verse 26.]] but now is disclosed, and through the prophetic scriptures has been made known to all the nations, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith—  [[#Verse 27.]] to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, be glory forever! Amen. ## ==📖 Verse-by-Verse Commentary== ###### Overall. ###### Verse 01. ###### Verse 02. ###### Verse 03. ###### Verse 04. ###### Verse 05. ###### Verse 06. ###### Verse 07. ###### Verse 08. ###### Verse 09. ###### Verse 10. ###### Verse 11. ###### Verse 12. ###### Verse 13. ###### Verse 14. ###### Verse 15. ###### Verse 16. ###### Verse 17. ###### Verse 18. ###### Verse 19. ###### Verse 20. ###### Verse 21. ###### Verse 22. ###### Verse 23. ###### Verse 24. ###### Verse 25. ###### Verse 26. ###### Verse 27. ## 🤔 Interesting Facts / Historical and Cultural Insights - coming soon. %% PRIVATE NOTES (only I see this) Write down things that are not straight from commentary but interesting facts that ground the text in history. %% ## 🧠 Chapter Summary - coming soon. %% PRIVATE NOTES (only I see this) Write a short paragraph (3–5 sentences) summarizing what happens in this chapter. - What is the main event or teaching? - How does this chapter fit the book’s overall story? - What stands out immediately?
