OET (OET-LV) But in_order_that you_all may_have_known also the things concerning me, what I_am_doing, Tuⱪikos the beloved brother and faithful servant will_be_making_known all things to_you_all, in the_master,

OET (OET-RV) Now Tychicus, a dear brother and faithful servant of Yahweh, will let you know about me and how I’m doing.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 6:21–24: Paul asked God to bless the believers

Before Paul ended his letter, he added some words about a man named Tychicus. Tychicus carried Paul’s letter to Ephesus and gave the Ephesian Christians news about Paul. Finally, Paul closed his letter by asking God’s blessing on them all. Ephesians 6:21–22 is almost identical to Colossians 4:7–8.

Here are some other examples for a heading for this section:

Final Greetings (GNT)

Final greetings from Paul

6:21a

Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord,

Tychicus: Tychicus is the name of a man.

the beloved brother: The Greek word that the BSB translates as beloved means “one whom I love.”

brother: Since God is the Father of all Christians, all Christians are like brothers and sisters. Therefore, people in the NT frequently use the Greek word for brother when referring to a fellow Christian. You should translate this term literally in your translation if possible. However, in some languages the word brother can only refer to a blood relative. If this is true in your language, you could use a term meaning:

fellow Christian

brother in Christ

fellow believer

dear friend (CEV)

faithful servant in the Lord: The Greek word that the BSB translates as faithful means “reliable, dependable, loyal.”

servant in the Lord: The phrase servant in the Lord means “he serves the Lord” or “person who does the Lord’s work.”

Here are some other ways to translate “faithful servant in the Lord”:

he serves the Lord very well

he continues doing work for the Lord

6:21b

will tell you everything, so that you also may know about me and what I am doing.

will tell you everything: The word everything here refers to Paul’s living situation when he was writing the letter to the Ephesians. It probably included his living conditions and his personal health. Some other ways everything has been translated include:

all the news about me (GNT)

everything that is happening to me (NCV)

how I am and every work I am doing

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal

ἵνα

in_order_that

The connecting phrase so that introduces a goal relationship. The goal or purpose of Paul sending Tychicus to Ephesus was to tell the Ephesian believers what was happening to Paul.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἀδελφὸς

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἵνα Δέ εἰδῆτε καί ὑμεῖς τά κατʼ ἐμέ τί πράσσω παντᾶ γνωρίσει ὑμῖν Τυχικός ὁ ἀγαπητός ἀδελφός καί πιστός διάκονος ἐν Κυρίῳ)

Paul speaks of Tychicus as if he were a brother to all the other believers who were in God’s spiritual family. Alternate translation: [fellow believer]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

6:21-24 Paul closes with some personal words and a benediction that repeats the desires expressed at the beginning of the letter.
