4:15 Nympha and the church that meets in her house: In the first two centuries of the Christian church, almost all believers met for worship in private homes. Nothing else is known of Nympha.
ἀσπάσασθε
greet
As was customary in this culture, Paul not only extends greetings from people who are with him and who know the people to whom he is writing (as he has done in 4:10–14). He also asks the Colossians to extend greetings for him to other people that both he and the Colossians know. Your language may have a particular way of sharing greetings in a letter. If so, you could use that form here. Alternate translation: “Remember me to” or “Say hello for me to”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
τοὺς & ἀδελφοὺς
the & brothers
The word brothers does not refer to only male people. Instead, it refers to both men and women who are part of the group of believers. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this idea with a word that does not refer to natural gender or you could use both male and female genders. Alternate translation: “the brothers and sisters”
Note 2 topic: translate-names
Νύμφαν
Nympha
Nympha is the name of a woman.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
κατ’ οἶκον αὐτῆς
in /the/_house (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἀσπάσασθε τοὺς ἐν Λαοδικείᾳ ἀδελφοὺς καὶ Νύμφαν καὶ τὴν κατʼ οἶκον αὐτῶν ἐκκλησίαν)
The phrase in her house is a way to indicate that the church used Nympha’s house as their meeting place. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable expression or state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “that gathers in her house”
