Nine out of the twenty-six persons greeted by Paul were women: Priscilla (v3), Mary (b6), probably Junia (b7), Tryphena and Tryphosa, who may have been twin sisters, and Persis (v12), Rufus’ mother (v13), Julia and Nereus’ sister (v15).
Thank God that the Apostle and the Bible don’t have a problem with women having public ministries that they are commended for. May it continue !
