Sister Phoebe Commended

1 I commend to you Phoebe our sister, who is a servant of the church in aCenchrea,  
2 athat you may receive her in the Lord bin a manner worthy of the saints, and assist her in whatever business she has need of you; for indeed she has been a helper of many and of myself also.  

Greeting Roman Saints

3 Greet aPriscilla and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus,  
4 who risked their own necks for my life, to whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.
5 Likewise greet athe church that is in their house. Greet my beloved Epaenetus, who is bthe firstfruits of Achaia to Christ.  
6 Greet Mary, who labored much for us.
7 Greet Andronicus and Junia, my countrymen and my fellow prisoners, who are of note among the aapostles, who also bwere in Christ before me.

Romans 16:3-5

Salute Priscilla—The true reading here is "Prisca" (as in II Timothy 4:19), a contracted form of Priscilla, as "Silas" of "Silvanus."

and Aquila my helpers—The wife is here named before the husband (as in Acts 18:18, and Romans 16:26, according to the true reading; also in II Timothy 4:19), probably as being the more prominent and helpful to the Church.
