Salute Tryphena and Tryphosa, who labour in the Lord. Salute the beloved Persis, which laboured much in the Lord.
Ver. 12. Who labour in the Lord] Though not so much as Persis did, yet doth he not defraud them of their due commendation; Prima sequentem honestum est in secundis tertiisque consistere. (Cic. De Orator.) Every man must not look to excel; let him be doing, as he is able.
