Context: Romans 16
1I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea:
2That ye receive her in the Lord, as becometh saints, and that ye assist her in whatsoever business she hath need of you: for she hath been a succourer of many, and of myself also.
3Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus:
4Who have for my life laid down their own necks: unto whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.
5Likewise greet the church that is in their house. Salute my wellbeloved Epaenetus, who is the firstfruits of Achaia unto Christ.

Commentary
Romans 16 is a chapter of greetings and farewells. Paul is concluding his letter to the Roman church and is sending his greetings to many of the people he knows in the church. He begins by commending Phoebe, a deaconess of the church in Cenchrea, for her service to the church. He then sends greetings to Priscilla and Aquila, a married couple who were fellow workers with Paul in the gospel. He also sends greetings to the church that meets in their house.
