Romans 16
Overview
16:1 Paul wills the brethren to greet many;
16:17 and advises them to take heed of those which cause dissension and offences;
16:21 and after sundry salutations ends with praise and thanks to God.

If they had fixed it during that residence at Corinth, during his journey to Jerusalem, or during his progress through Asia Minor, an equal contradiction would have been incurred because, during all that time, they were either with St. Paul, or abiding at Ephesus. Lastly, had they fixed this epistle to be either contemporary with the first epistle to the Corinthians, or prior to it, a similar contradiction would have ensued, for they were then with St. Paul. As it is, all things are consistent. - See Dr. Paley.Priscilla Acts 18:2-17, 18:26; 1 Corinthians 16:19; 2 Timothy 4:19 my Romans 16:9; 1 Corinthians 16:16 Reciprocal 1 Chronicles 22:17 - all the princes; Acts 15:23 - greeting; Romans 16:2 - for; Philippians 4:21 - Salute Verse 4 have Romans 5:7; John 15:13; Philippians 2:30; 1 John 3:16 laid Joshua 10:24; 2 Samuel 22:41; Micah 2:3 also Acts 15:41, 16:5; 1 Corinthians 7:17, 16:1; 1 Thessalonians 2:14; Revelation 1:4 Reciprocal Judges 9:17 - adventured his life; 11:36 - forasmuch; 12:3 - put; 1 Chronicles 11:19 - that have put their lives; Esther 4:16 - if I perish; Job 16:12 - by my neck; Acts 18:2 - Aquila; Romans 16:2 - for; 16:16 - The; 1 Corinthians 16:19 - Aquila; 2 Corinthians 8:18 - throughout; 11:28 - the care; 2 Timothy 4:19 - Prisca Verse 5 the church Matthew 18:20; 1 Corinthians 16:19; Colossians 4:15; Philemon 1:2 my Romans 16:8, 16:12; 3 John 1:1 who Romans 11:16; 1 Corinthians 16:15; James 1:18; Revelation 14:4 Achaia Romans 15:26; Acts 18:12, 18:27; 2 Corinthians 1:1, 9:2 Reciprocal Deuteronomy 26:2 - That thou shalt; Jeremiah 2:3 - the firstfruits; 2 Corinthians 11:10 - the regions Verse 6 who Romans 16:12; Matthew 27:55; 1 Timothy 5:10 Reciprocal Exodus 35:25 - General; 2 Kings 4:13 - thou hast; Proverbs 11:16 - gracious; 31:31 - and let; Romans 16:2 - for; 1 Corinthians 16:16 - laboureth; 1 Thessalonians 1:3 - and labour Verse 7 kinsmen Romans 16:11, 16:21, fellow prisoners, 2 Corinthians 11:23; Colossians 4:10; Philemon 1:23; Revelation 1:9 who Galatians 2:2, 2:6 were Romans 8:1; Isaiah 45:17, 45:25; John 6:56, 14:20, 15:2; 1 Corinthians 1:30; 2 Corinthians 5:17, 5:21; Galatians 1:22, 5:6, 6:15; Ephesians 2:10; 1 John 4:13, 5:20 Reciprocal Acts 21:16 - an old; 2 Corinthians 12:2 - in Christ; Philippians 3:9 - in Verse 8 my Romans 16:5; Philippians 4:1; 1 John 3:14 Reciprocal Romans 16:22 - salute Verse 9 our Romans 16:2, 16:3, 16:21 Reciprocal 1 Corinthians 16:16 - helpeth; Philippians 4:3 - help Verse 10 approved Romans 14:18; Deuteronomy 8:2; 1 Corinthians 11:19; 2 Corinthians 2:9, 8:22; Philippians 2:22; 1 Timothy 3:10; 1 Peter 1:7 of 2 Timothy 4:19 householdor, friendsReciprocal 2 Corinthians 6:4 - in all; 10:18 - approved; 13:7 - approved; 2 Timothy 2:15 - approved; 3 John 1:14 - Our Verse 11 Reciprocal Romans 16:7 - kinsmen; 16:21 - my kinsmen; 1 Corinthians 1:30 - in; 2 Corinthians 5:17 - be; 3 John 1:14 - Our Verse 12 labour Matthew 9:38; 1 Corinthians 15:10, 15:58, 16:16; Colossians 1:29, 4:12; 1 Thessalonians 1:3, 5:12, 5:13; 1 Timothy 4:10, 5:17, 5:18; Habakkuk 3:1, 3:1 Reciprocal Exodus 35:25 - General; Proverbs 31:31 - and let; Acts 15:25 - our; Romans 16:5 - my; 16:6 - who; Philippians 4:3 - help; Revelation 2:3 - hast laboured Verse 13 Rufus Mark 15:21 chosen Matthew 20:16; John 15:16; Ephesians 1:4; 2 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 John 1:1 his Matthew 12:49, 12:50; Mark 3:35; John 19:27; 1 Timothy 5:2 Reciprocal Judges 5:7 - a mother Verse 14 and Romans 8:29; Colossians 1:2; Habakkuk 3:1; 1 Peter 1:22, 1:23
