In this Bible Study from Pastor Andy Falleur in Romans 16, we read through the closing greetings of the letter from Paul to the church in Rome. There’s a glimpse into the Christian community in Rome and a glimpse into the people around Paul. It’s interesting to see both men and women, and people from all different cultures and ages, marital status and socio-economic levels. There’s also echoes back to the beginning of the letter and there’s information that helps to date the letter and give the circumstances around it’s delivery. What’s also interesting is to see the various ways that Paul describes the people, and how there’s some people that shouldn’t be greeted. They are to be avoided. It’s very interesting to see how and why these people ended up in this list and preserved for us by the Holy Spirit.
