Reference: Synzygus

Hastings

This is taken by some as a proper name in Php 4:3 ('Synzygus truly so called'), but it is nowhere else found as such. It is more probably a way of describing the chief minister of the church at Philippi. Lightfoot (Com., in loc.) suggests Epaphroditus; Ramsay (St. Paul, p. 358), Luke; others, Barnabas or Silas or Timothy. An old tradition of the 2nd cent. (Lightfoot, ib.) makes the 'yoke-fellow' to be the Apostle's wife; Renan supposes that Lydia is meant, and that she had become his wife; but see 1Co 7:8.

A. J. Maclean.
