Kolose 4:7

Personal Greetings and Instructions

4:7 Tychicus, a dear brother, faithful minister, and fellow slave ²  in the Lord, will tell you all the news about me. ³ 

Kolose 4:9

4:9 I sent him ⁴  with Onesimus, the faithful and dear brother, who is one of you. ⁵  They will tell ⁶  you about everything here.

[1:27]  ¹ tn The genitive noun τῆς δόξης (ths doxhs) is an attributive genitive and has therefore been translated as “glorious riches.”

[4:7]  ² tn See the note on “fellow slave” in 1:7.

[4:7]  ³ tn Grk “all things according to me.”

[4:9]  ⁴ tn The Greek sentence continues v. 9 with the phrase “with Onesimus,” but this is awkward in English, so the verb “I sent” was inserted and a new sentence started at the beginning of v. 9 in the translation.

[4:9]  ⁵ tn Grk “is of you.”

[4:9]  ⁶ tn Grk “will make known to you.” This has been simplified in the translation to “will tell.”
