Romans 16:15

Philologus (Filologon). Another common slave name.

Julia (Ioulian). The commonest name for female slaves in the imperial household because of Julius Caesar. Possibly these two were husband and wife.

Nereus (Nhrea). Found in inscriptions of the imperial household. But the sister's name is not given. One wonders why.

Olympas (Olumpan). Possibly an abbreviation for Olympiodorus.

All the saints that are with them (touv sun autoiv pantav agiouv). Possibly another church in the house. These unnamed, the "and others," constitute the great majority in all our churches.
