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)

He greeted them and instructed them one last time

Paul greeted the believers there

16:6

Greet Mary, who has worked very hard for you.

Greet Mary for me. She has labored much for you^(plur).
Give my greetings of respect to Mary. She worked very hard for Christ in order to help you.

Mary: This woman is not otherwise known. This name probably does not refer to any other Mary in the Bible. The Greek spelling of this name, using English letters, is Maria.

who has worked very hard for you: This further describes this Mary. It does not separate this Mary from other Marys. For the correct meaning, some languages must avoid the word who, or start a new sentence. For example:

She has worked very hard for you.

has worked very hard: The Greek is more literally “labored much.” It is implied that Mary had worked hard for the gospel of Jesus. But it is not known what kind of gospel work she did.

for you: This indicates that Mary’s work benefited the believers in Rome.

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

16:1-16 Paul here commended and greeted twenty-seven Roman Christians, ten of whom were women. Women played important roles in the early church.
• Paul had never been to Rome, which has led to some speculation as to how he knew so many people there. One theory is that ch 16 was actually part of another letter that Paul sent to Ephesus. However, we have no good manuscript evidence for a separate letter (cp. study note on 15:33). Perhaps the answer is that Paul was able to greet so many people in Rome because he had encountered them during their travels away from Rome (see Romans Book Introduction, “Setting”).
