Romans 16:5 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Who is the first-fruits of Achaia— It is probable that Epenetus might be converted at the same time with Stephanas, called also the first-fruits of Achaia; 1 Corinthians 16:15 for there is no manner of necessity to understand by that expression the veryfirst Christian convert. Epenetus possibly might be one of that happy family, to whom this appellation is given.

Romans 16:5

5 Likewise greet the church that is in their house. Salute my wellbeloved Epaenetus, who is the firstfruits of Achaia unto Christ.
