2. and to the sister Apphia and to Archippus our fellow-soldier, and to the assembly which is in thine house.
3. Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4. I thank my God, always making mention of thee at my prayers,
5. hearing of thy love and the faith which thou hast towards the Lord Jesus, and towards all the saints,
