“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
16:21-24 The apostle adds affectionate remembrances from persons with him, known to the Roman Christians. It is a great comfort to see the holiness and usefulness of our kindred. Not many mighty, not many noble are called, but some are. It is lawful for believers to bear civil offices; and it were to be wished that all offices in Christian states, and in the church, were bestowed upon prudent and steady Christians.
“And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.”
