Salute every saint in Christ Jesus
on Philippians 4:21-23
The greetings carry a quiet trophy: chiefly they that are of Cesar's household, the familia Caesaris of slaves and freedmen who ran the empire's administration, believers now inside Nero's own establishment. The gospel Paul could not carry to the palace walked in with his chains, as 1:12-13 said it would. The letter of joy ends where every Pauline letter ends, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

In regard to the subscription at the end of this Epistle, it may be remarked, as has been done of the other subscriptions at the end of the Epistles, that it is of no authority whatever. There is no reason, however, to doubt that in this case it is correct. The Epistle bears internal evidence of having been written from Rome, and was doubtless sent by Epaphroditus. See the introduction, section 3. There is considerable variety in the subscription.
