Greet Ampliatus, my beloved in the Lord.
Commentary on Romans 16:82 voices
Amplias--a contracted form of "Ampliatus." my beloved in the Lord--an expression of dear Christian affection. Urbane--rather, "Urbanus." It is a man's name. our helper--"fellow labourer" in Christ.
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871Reformed
Where the law of love is in the heart the law of kindness will be in the tongue. Endearing language should pass among Christians to express love, and to engage love. So he calls Amplias, beloved in the Lord, with true Christian love for Christ's sake; and Stachys, his beloved: a sign that Paul had been in the third heaven, he was so much made up of love.
