Colossians 4:7 Tychicus will tell you all the news about me. He is

a dear brother, a faithful minister and fellow servant in the Lord. 8 I

am sending him to you for the express purpose that you may know

about our circumstances and that he may encourage your hearts. 9

He is coming with Onesimus, our faithful and dear brother, who is one

of you. They will tell you everything that is happening here. - (NIV84)

Colossians 4:10 My fellow prisoner Aristarchus sends you his

greetings, as does Mark, the cousin of Barnabas. (You have received

instructions about him; if he comes to you, welcome him.) 11 Jesus,

who is called Justus, also sends greetings. These are the only Jews

among my fellow workers for the kingdom of God, and they have

proved a comfort to me.
