Romans 16:8

Verse 8

‘Salute Ampliatus my beloved in the Lord.’

Ampliatus was a well attested name in Rome, commonly found in Roman inscriptions. It is attested among the imperial household. ‘My beloved in the Lord’ simply indicates a dear fellow-Christian (compare Romans 16:5; Romans 16:9; Romans 16:12), usually when he has nothing further to say about them.
