Salute Andronicus and Junias, fellow-countrymen and fellow-prisoners of mine; they are men of note among the apostles, and they have been in Christ longer than I have.

Aristarchus my fellow-prisoner salutes you; so does Mark, the cousin of Barnabas, about whom you have got instructions (if he comes to you, give him a welcome);

Epaphras my fellow-prisoner in Christ Jesus salutes you.

Paul a prisoner of Christ Jesus and brother Timotheus, to our beloved fellow-worker Philemon,

At festival time the governor was in the habit of releasing any one prisoner whom the crowd chose.

At that time they had a notorious prisoner called Jesus Bar-Abbas;

But it is your custom that I should release a prisoner for you at the passover. Is it your will that I release you the king of the Jews?"

Now at festival time he used to release for them some prisoner whom they begged from him.

So the officer took him to the commander, saying, "The prisoner Paul has summoned me to ask if I would bring this young man to you, as he has something to tell you."

For it seems absurd to me to forward a prisoner without notifying the particulars of his charge."

Three days later, he called the leading Jews together, and when they met he said to them, "Brothers, although I have done nothing against the People or our ancestral customs, I was handed over to the Romans as a prisoner from Jerusalem.

but then I find quite another law in my members which conflicts with the law of my mind and makes me a prisoner to sin's law that resides in my members.

As the Lord's prisoner, then, I beg of you to live a life worthy of your calling,

So do not be ashamed to testify to our Lord, and do not be ashamed of a prisoner of the Lord like me; join me in bearing suffering for the gospel by the power of the God

I prefer to appeal to you on the ground of love. Well then, as Paul the old man, who now-a-days is a prisoner for Christ Jesus,

the weapons of my warfare are not weapons of the flesh, but divinely strong to demolish fortresses ??5 I demolish theories and any rampart thrown up to resist the knowledge of God, I take every project prisoner to make it obey Christ,

For this reason I Paul, I whom Jesus has made a prisoner for the sake of you Gentiles ??2 for surely you have heard how the grace of God which was vouchsafed me in your interests has ordered it,

Timotheus my fellow-worker salutes you; so do my fellow countrymen Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater.

As for Epaphroditus, however, my brother, my fellow-worker, my fellow-soldier, and your messenger to meet my wants, I think it necessary to send you him at once,

placed after 5:47] The Jews were amazed, saying, "How can this uneducated fellow manage to read?"

But as that servant went away, he met one of his fellow-servants who owed him twenty pounds, and seizing him by the throat he said, 'Pay your debt!'

So his fellow-servant fell down and implored him, saying, 'Have patience with me, and I will pay you.'

Now when his fellow-servants saw what had happened they were greatly distressed, and they went and explained to their master all that had happened.

Ought you not to have had mercy on your fellow-servant, as I had on you?'

We know God spoke to Moses, but we do not know where this fellow comes from."

Whereupon Thomas (called 'the Twin') said to his fellow-disciples, "Let us go too, let us die along with him!"

whereupon the high priests and the Pharisees called a meeting of the Sanhedrin. "Whatever is to be done?" they said. "The fellow is performing a number of Signs.

and if he starts to beat his fellow-servants and to eat and drink with drunkards,

No, when you are invited, go and recline in the lowest place, so that when your host comes in he will tell you, 'Move higher up, my friend.' Then you will be honoured before your fellow guests.

Hearing this, one of his fellow guests said to him, "Blessed is he who feasts in the Realm of God!"

saying, 'This fellow started to build but he could not finish it.'

and said, "This fellow declared, 'I can destroy the temple of God and build it in three days.'"

When he went out to the gateway another maidservant noticed him and said to those who were there, "This fellow was with Jesus the Nazarene."

The maidservant at the door then said to Peter, "Are you not one of this fellow's disciples?" He said, "No."

They also brought forward false witnesses to say, "This fellow is never done talking against this holy Place and the Law!

His fellow-travellers stood speechless, for they heard the voice but they could not see anyone.

A maidservant who noticed him sitting by the fire took a long look at him and said, "That fellow was with him too."

About an hour had passed when another man insisted, "That fellow really was with him. Why, he is a Galilean!"

Again the maidservant who had noticed him began to tell the bystanders, "That fellow is one of them."

They proceeded to accuse him, saying, "We have discovered this fellow perverting our nation, forbidding tribute being paid to Caesar, and alleging he is king messiah."

Some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers also came across him. Some said, "Whatever does the fellow mean with his scraps of learning'?" Others said, "He looks like a herald of foreign deities" (this was because he preached 'Jesus' and 'the Resurrection').

crying, "This fellow incites men to worship God contrary to the Law."

You also see and hear that not only at Ephesus but almost all over Asia this fellow Paul has drawn off a considerable number of people by his persuasions. He declares that hand-made gods are not gods at all.

If Demetrius and his fellow tradesmen have a grievance against anybody, let both parties state their charges; assizes are held and there are always the proconsuls.

when at mid-day on the road, O king, I saw a light from heaven, more dazzling than the sun, flash round me and my fellow-travellers.

saying, 'Have no fear, Paul; you must stand before Caesar. And God has granted you the lives of all your fellow-voyagers.'

His fellow guests began to say to themselves, "Who is this, to forgive even sins?"

But when the Pharisees heard of it they said, "This fellow only casts out daemons by Beelzebul the prince of daemons."

in the hope of being able to make my fellow-Jews jealous and of managing thus to save some of them.

Be in debt to no man ??apart from the debt of love one to another. He who loves his fellow-man has fulfilled the law.
