This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Tryphaena and Tryphosa (Truphainan kai Truphōsan). Probably sisters and possibly twins. Both names come from the same root, the verb truphaō, to live luxuriously (Jam 5:5). Denney suggests “Dainty and Disdain.”
Persis (Persida). A freedwoman was so named. She is not Paul’s “beloved,” but the “beloved” of the whole church.
