The key word in this section of Scripture is clearly ‘Greet’ (ἀσπάζομαι), used 21x in Romans 16 (over 1/3 of all the NT occurences). The intimate nature of these greetings is reflected in Paul’s description of the relaitonship that he has with these people. They are: • ‘my beloved’ or ‘beloved’- Epaenetus, Ampliatus, Stachys • ‘my co-worker’- Priscilla and Aquilla, Andronicus and Junia, Urbanus • those ‘who labor much’- Mary, Persida • ‘my fellow prisoners’- Andronicus and Junia • ‘my relative’- Herodion • ‘chosen in the Lord’- Rufus • ‘firstfruits for Christ’- Epaenetus • ‘before me in the Lord’- Andronicus and Junia • ‘tested in the Lord’- Apelles The phrase ‘in the Lord is used 7x in Romans 16 (vv. 2, 8, 11-13, 22), and ‘in Christ [Jesus]’ occurs 4x (vv. 3, 7, 9-10), to indicate the nature of or source of their intimate friendship. The Roman church is called to "greet one another with a holy kiss," putting into practice Paul's exhortations from chs 12-15 about welcoming one another and showing love and honor to one another.
