Jerome

Commentary on Titus · Written before 420.

Those who are with me greet you. And he had accustomed himself to say hello to Titus from everyone who was with him or at least properly to Titus, because he was such that he deserved the love of all who were with Paul. Truly great praise was attributed to Titus by everyone through Paul. Salute those who love us in faith. If everyone who loves, loved in faith, and there were no others who loved without faith, Paul would never have added love to faith, saying, "Salute those who love us in faith."

Commentary on the Whole Bible (1710)

Great comfort and encouragement it is to have the heart and prayers of other Christians with and for us. Greet those that love us in the faith, or for the faith, who are our loving fellow-christians. Holiness, or the image of God in any, is the great endearing thing that gives strength to all other bonds, and is itself the best.

"Distinguish the person and the sin; pity the one and hate the other. Distinguish between sin and sin; look not on all alike, there are motes and beams. Distinguish also between sinner and sinner: of some have compassion, others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, thus making a difference, Jude 22, 23 .

All that are with me salute thee,....

The Nineteenth Century3 voices

All that are with me salute thee - Notes, Rom 16:3. Paul, at the close of his epistles, usually mentions the names of those who sent affectionate salutations. Here it would seem to be implied that Titus knew who were with Paul, and also that he himself had been traveling with him. He evidently refers not to those who were residing in the place where he was, but to those who had gone with him from Crete as his companions. Greet them that love us in the faith - In the faith of the gospel, or as Christians.

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible (1871)

Greet--"Salute them that love us in the faith." All at Crete had not this love rooted in faith, the true bond of fellowship. A salutation peculiar to this Epistle, such as no forger would have used. Grace--Greek, "The grace," namely, of God. with you all--not that the Epistle is addressed to all the Cretan Christians, but Titus would naturally impart it to his flock.

All that are with me - He means his companions in the ministry. Salute thee - Wish thee well, and desire to be affectionately remembered to thee. Greet them that love us in the faith, - All that love us for Christ’s sake, and all that are genuine Christians. Grace be with you - May the Divine favor be your portion for ever. Some MSS. read, The grace of the Lord be with you all; others, The grace of God be with you all; and one, Grace be with Thy spirit, as if the greeting was sent to Titus only, whereas the others send it to the whole Church at Crete. Amen - This is wanting in ACD, and some others. The subscriptions are, as usual, various. Those of the Versions are the following: - The Epistle to Titus was written from Nicopolis; and sent by the hands of Zena and Apollo. - Syriac. To the man Titus. - Aethiopic. The end of the epistle: it was written from Nicopolis. Incessant and eternal praise be to the God of glory. Amen. - Arabic. Written in Nicopolis, and sent by Artemas, his disciple. - Coptic. The Epistle to Titus is ended, who was the first bishop of the Church of the Cretans: and it was written from Nicopolis of Macedonia. - Philoxenian Syriac. There is no subscription in the Vulgate. The Manuscripts are also various. To Titus. - C, and Clarom. That to Titus is completed: that to Philemon begins. - DEFG. To Titus, written from Nicopolis. - A. To Titus, written from Nicopolis of Macedonia. - of the Macedonians. - From Nicopolis, which is a province of Macedonia. Paul the apostle’s Epistle to Titus. To Titus, ordained the first bishop of the Church of the Cretans: written from Nicopolis of Macedonia. - Common Greek Text. To Titus, archbishop of Crete. - One of the Vienna MSS., written a.d. 1331. There is not one of these subscriptions of any authority, and some of them are plainly ridiculous. […]
