This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
He salutes several women as well as men: you read before of Priscilla, Rom_16:3; of Mary, Rom_16:6; and now he adds three more in this verse. He saith of the two first, that they
laboured in the Lord; i.e. in the service of Christ and his church, according to their place and power. See the notes on Rom_16:6.
Salute the beloved Persis, which laboured much in the Lord; he gives this woman a higher commendation, calling her
the beloved Persis; see Rom_16:8. He saith of the other two, that they laboured; but of this, that she hath laboured much in the Lord, noting some special favour or service for which she is here commended.
