      the holy ones: See study note on Ro 1:7.

      Colossae: A city in SW Asia Minor that in Paul’s day was in the Roman province of Asia. (See Glossary, “Asia”; App. B13.) Its location in the Lycus River valley put it on a major trade route that connected cities on the Aegean Coast with cities to the E. By the first century C.E., neighboring Laodicea and Hierapolis had also become major cities in this region. Colossae continued to be a well-known textile center, noted for its fine wool dyed a reddish-purple, a color that was called colossinus. The remains of the ancient city, located 4 km (2.5 mi) from the Turkish town of Honaz, have not yet been excavated.

      May you have undeserved kindness and peace from God our Father: See study note on Ro 1:7.
