Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

SOTN 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

16:22

I, Tertius, who wrote down this letter, greet you in the Lord.

It is I, Tertius, who wrote the words of Paul in this letter. I greet you^(plur) in the Lord.
I, Tertius, wrote this letter from Paul to you. I also give greetings to you in the Lord.

I, Tertius, who wrote down this letter, greet you in the Lord: The words who wrote down this letter further describe Tertius. In some languages it is more natural or more clear to translate without using who. For example:

I, Tertius, wrote down this letter, and I greet you in the Lord

I, Tertius, who wrote down this letter: This implies that Tertius wrote what Paul spoke/dictated.

I: In Greek this is emphatic. For example:

I myself, Tertius, who wrote this letter

greet you in the Lord: This indicates that Tertius greeted the believers in Rome as a fellow believer.

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐγὼ, Τέρτιος, ὁ γράψας τὴν ἐπιστολὴν

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ἀσπάζομαι ὑμᾶς ἐγώ Τέρτιος ὁ γράψας τήν ἐπιστολήν ἐν Κυρίῳ)

This clause means that Tertius wrote down the words that Paul told him to write in this letter. In ancient times it was common for people to use scribes to physically write dictated letters for them. See the discussion of this in the General Notes for this chapter. Alternate translation: [I, Tertius, am the person who wrote down what Paul told me to write in this epistle]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person

ἀσπάζομαι ὑμᾶς ἐγὼ, Τέρτιος, ὁ γράψας τὴν ἐπιστολὴν, ἐν Κυρίῳ

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ἀσπάζομαι ὑμᾶς ἐγώ Τέρτιος ὁ γράψας τήν ἐπιστολήν ἐν Κυρίῳ)

I here refers to Tertius, who writes this verse. Unlike elsewhere in this letter, it does not refer to Paul. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use the third person in this verse. Alternate translation: [Tertius, who wrote this epistle, greets you in the Lord]

Note 3 topic: translate-names

Τέρτιος

Tertius

The word Tertius is the name of a man.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
