⥃Personal Greetings and Love
[1] I commend2 unto you Phebe our3 sister, which is a servant4 of the church which is at Cenchrea5: [2] That ye receive6 her in the Lord, as7 becometh saints, and that ye assist her in whatsoever business she hath need of you: for8 she hath been a succourer of many, and of myself also. [3] Greet9 Priscilla10 and Aquila my11 helpers in Christ Jesus: [4] Who have12 for my life laid13 down their own necks: unto whom not only I give thanks, but also14 all the churches of the Gentiles. [5] Likewise [greet] the church15 that is in their house. Salute my16 wellbeloved Epenetus, who17 is the firstfruits of Achaia18 unto Christ. [6] Greet Mary, who19 bestowed much labour on us. [7] Salute Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen20, and my fellowprisoners, who21 are of note among the apostles, who also were22 in Christ before me. [8] Greet Amplias my23 beloved in the Lord. [9] Salute Urbane, our24 helper in Christ, and Stachys my beloved. [10] Salute Apelles approved25 in Christ. Salute them which are of26 Aristobulus’ [household27]. [11] Salute Herodion my kinsman. Greet them that be of the [household] of Narcissus, which are in the Lord. [12] Salute Tryphena and Tryphosa, who labour28 in the Lord. Salute the beloved Persis, which laboured much in the Lord. [13] Salute Rufus29 chosen30 in the Lord, and his31 mother and mine. [14] Salute Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and32 the brethren which are with them. [15] Salute Philologus, and Julia, Nereus, and his sister, and Olympas, and all33 the saints which are with them. [16] Salute one another with34 an holy kiss. The35 churches of Christ salute you.
⥃Avoid Divisions [ Titus 3:9–11 ]
[17] Now I beseech you, brethren, mark36 them which cause37 divisions and offences38 contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and39 avoid them. [18] For they that are such serve40 not our Lord Jesus Christ, but41 their own belly; and by42 good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple43. [19] For your obedience44 is come abroad unto all [men]. I am45 glad therefore on your behalf: but yet46 I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple47 concerning evil. [20] And the God48 of peace shall49 bruise50 Satan under your feet shortly. The grace51 of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you. Amen.
⥃Greetings from Paul’s Fellow Workers [ Colossians 4:7–14 ]
[21] Timotheus52 my workfellow, and Lucius53, and Jason54, and Sosipater55, my kinsmen56, salute you. [22] I Tertius, who57 wrote [this] epistle, salute58 you in the Lord. [23] Gaius59 mine host, and of the whole church, saluteth you. Erastus60 the chamberlain61 of the city saluteth you, and Quartus a brother. [24] The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all. Amen.62
⥃Doxology [ Jude 1:24–25 ]
[25] Now to him63 that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel64, and the65 preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the66 revelation of the mystery, which67 was kept secret since the world began, [26] But now68 is made manifest, and by69 the scriptures of the prophets, according70 to the commandment of the everlasting71 God, made known to all nations for the72 obedience of faith: [27] To God73 only74 wise, [be] glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen.

Had the notes of time in this epistle fixed the writing of it to any date prior to St. Paul's first residence at Corinth, the salutation of Aquila and Priscilla would have contradicted the history, because it would have been prior to his acquaintance with these persons. If they had fixed it during that residence at Corinth, during his journey to Jerusalem, or during his progress through Asia Minor, an equal contradiction would have been incurred because, during all that time, they were either with St. Paul, or abiding at Ephesus. Lastly, had they fixed this epistle to be either contemporary with the first epistle to the Corinthians, or prior to it, a similar contradiction would have ensued, for they were then with St. Paul. As it is, all things are consistent. - See Dr. Paley. ↩
