Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

It is also possible, that Archippus attended and shared in some contests which Paul maintained; and, indeed, this is the very word that Paul makes use of, whenever he mentions persecutions. And to the Church which is in thy house.

John Calvin· Commentaries, 1554reformed

Archippus--a minister of the Colossian Church (Col 4:17). fellow soldier-- (2Ti 2:3). church in thy house--In the absence of a regular church building, the houses of particular saints were used for that purpose. Observe Paul's tact in associating with Philemon those associated by kindred or Christian brotherhood with his house, and not going beyond it.

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871reformed
