SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 16:1–24: Paul greeted the believers in Rome

In this section, Paul told the believers to welcome Phoebe when she arrived in Rome and to help her. It is likely that Phoebe carried this letter to Rome.

Then Paul greeted a number of believers whom he had already met. He often used an encouraging description of the person he was greeting.

Then he encouraged the believers in Rome to welcome one another. He warned them to watch out for people who cause divisions or create problems among the believers. He told them to avoid such people. He reminded them that such people only do things for their own selfish interests. He reminded the believers in Rome that people in many places know that the believers obey God well. He encouraged them by saying that God would soon defeat Satan. He blessed them with the grace of Jesus.

He relayed greetings to them from people who were there with him.

Here are other possible headings for this section:

Final Instructions and Greetings (ESV)

Paul greeted the believers there

16:24

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.]

[I ask that the grace of our Lord Jesus be with you. Amen.]
[I pray that the kindness of our Lord Jesus will continue to be with you. It is true.]

[The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.]: There is a textual issue here. 16:24 was added in some of the later Greek manuscripts. It is similar to 16:20b. It is good to include this verse only as a footnote, as many English versions do. Here is an example footnote:

Only some of the later Greek manuscripts include 16:24, which reads: The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

If the major language version in your area includes this verse in the text, you may want to include it in brackets. The NASB does that. The Display also does that.

If you put 16:24 in a footnote, here are several ways to number the verses:

Put the number 24 after the number 23. Put the footnote marker after the last sentence. For example:
^23–24Gaius, who is host to me and to the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the city treasurer, and our brother Quartus, greet you.*
Put in the number 24 after the last sentence of 16:23, and put the footnote marker after the number. For example:
²³Gaius, who is host to me and to the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the city treasurer, and our brother Quartus, greet you. ²⁴*
Do not include the number 24. Put the footnote marker after the last sentence. For example:
²³Gaius, who is host to me and to the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the city treasurer, and our brother Quartus, greet you.*
