The Key Word — ἀσπάζονται, aspazomaigenerated
The verb ἀσπάζομαι means to greet or welcome, often used in the context of expressing good wishes. It implies a sense of respect or affection, as seen in other New Testament greetings.
In this verse, it is in the present tense and indicative mood, indicating an ongoing action of greeting from multiple subjects — the saints. This shows a communal aspect of faith, where the greetings are not just from one person but from a collective group.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as 'All the saints send you greetings, especially those from the household of Caesar.' The KJV uses 'salute' instead of 'send greetings', which carries a more formal tone.
Where translations differ, the KJV and ASV use 'salute' for ἀσπάζονται, while the BSB and others opt for 'greet'. The term 'household' is consistently used across translations, but the BBE translates it as 'house', showing a slight variation in emphasis.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb of the sentence is ἀσπάζονται, they greet, which governs the subject noun phrase, οἱ ἅγιοι (the saints). The phrase 'especially those from the household of Caesar' acts as an adverbial phrase, providing additional context about who is greeting.
The structure consists of a main clause followed by a subordinate phrase that specifies a particular group within the broader subject of saints. This highlights the unity and diversity within the Christian community.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἅγιος appears in the Septuagint, often translated from the Hebrew word for 'holy'. It is used to describe people or things set apart for God, similar to its usage in the New Testament.
οἰκία is also found in the Septuagint, where it refers to a house or household, indicating the familial and communal aspects of faith that carry over into the New Testament context.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(22) of Cæsar’s household.—The “household of Cæsar” included a multitude of persons of all ages and ranks and occupations. Dr. Lightfoot, in a very interesting excursus on this verse, remarking that these Christians of Cæsar’s household are alluded to as if well known to the Philippians, has examined the various names mentioned in Romans 16. (three years before this time), and finds many of them identical with names actually found in sepulchral inscriptions, as belonging to members of the “domus Augusta,” or imperial household. These were earlier converts; but, wherever St. Paul’s prison was, he can hardly have failed to gain through the prætorians some communication with the household of…

If even some of his slaves were converted to Christianity, it would he sufficiently marvellous. Converts to Christianity in this family there certainly were; and this shows how powerfully the Divine word had been preached and spread.

It has been sometimes assumed that these persons, on the other hand, were members of the imperial family, and this has been used either to prove the remarkable advance of the Gospel in the highest Roman society during St Paul’s first captivity, and incidentally to evidence a late date in that captivity for the Epistle, or to support a theory of the spuriousness of the Epistle.

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.

ἀσπάζομαι is a verb meaning to greet, welcome, or salute, often used in the context of expressing good wishes or taking leave. It can also imply a physical embrace or kiss, and is employed as a formal closing in letters. The New Testament frequently uses it in greetings, such as in Romans 16:16 and 1 Corinthians 16:20.

The Greek word πᾶς (i.e., *pas*) means 'all' or 'every' and appears in various forms, including masculine, feminine, and neuter. It is used in the New Testament to denote totality, as in 'all things' or 'every kind,' and can function as an adjective or pronoun. Notably, it can also imply 'the whole' when used with definite articles, as seen in verses like Matthew 28:18.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

The Greek word ἅγιος (i.e., *hagios*) means holy or sacred, derived from a root indicating reverence. It refers to things and places dedicated to God, such as temples, and to persons, including angels and saints. In the New Testament, it is often applied to God, Christ, and believers, emphasizing moral purity and separation for divine service. Notably, it can also imply a sense of veneration.
‘Iepos, probably the same word as the German ‘hehr’ (see Curtius, Grundziige, vol. v. p. 369), never in the N. T., and very seldom elsewhere, implies any moral excellence. It is singular how seldom the word is found there, indeed only twice (1 Cor. ix. 13; 2 Tim. iii. 15) ; and only once in the Septuagint (Josh. vi. 8: ἱεραὶ cadrvyyes); four times in 2 Maccabees, but not else in the Apocrypha; being in none of these instances employed of persons, who only are moral agents, but always of things. To persons the word elsewhere also is of rarest application, though examples are not wanting. Thus ἱερὸς ἄνθρωπος is in Aristophanes (Rane, 652) a man initiated in the mysteries ; kings for 328 SYNONYMS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT. § uxxxvut. Pindar (Pyth. v. 97 [Diss., 131 Heyn.]) are ἱεροί, as having their dignity from the gods; for Plutarch the Indian gymnosophists are ἄνδρες ἱεροὶ καὶ αὐτόνομοι (De…

sants: In the King James Version 3 words are thus rendered:
(1) qadhosh (in Da the same root occurs several times in its Aramaic form, qaddish);
(2) chacidh, and
(3) hagioi.
Of these words (2) has in general the meaning of righteousness or goodness, while (1) and (3) have the meaning of consecration and divine claim and ownership. They are not primarily words of character, like chacidh, but express a relation to God as being set apart for His own. Wherever qadhosh refers to angels, the rendering "holy one" or "holy ones" has been substituted in the Revised Version (British and American) for the King James Version "saint" or "saints," which is the case also in Ps 106:16 margin (compare 34:9), and in 1Sa 2:9, as the translation of chacidh.

The Greek word μάλιστα (malista) is the neuter plural of the superlative form of the adverb μάλα (mala), meaning 'very.' It conveys the idea of 'most of all' or 'especially.' This term appears 12 times in the New Testament, often emphasizing importance or priority in various contexts. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement about its meaning.
μάλιστα, v.s. μάλα.
μάλιστα (superlative of the adv. μάλα), [fr. Hom. down], adv., especially, chiefly, most of all, above all: Acts xx. 88; xxv. 26; Gal. vi. 10; Phil. iv. 22; 1 Tim. iv. 10; v. 8,17; 2 Tim. iv. 13; Tit. i.10; Philem. 16; 2 Pet. li. 10; μάλιστα γνώστης, especially expert, thoroughly well-informed, Acts xxvi. 3.
μάλιστα, “most of all,” ‘‘especially,”’ which occurs 12 times in the NT, and is usually elative, may be illustrated by P Lille I. 26° (iii/B.c.) ἔγραψάς μοι περὶ τῆς els τὴν σησαμείαν γῆς, μάλιστα δὲ περὶ τῆς ἐν ΠΠΤατῶντι, P Goodsp Cairo 415 (mid. ii/B.C.)

δέ (de) is a post-positive particle in Greek, primarily used as a conjunction to connect clauses. It can express contrast (but, on the other hand) or continuation (and, also), and is often used to transition between ideas or to add emphasis. In the New Testament, it appears frequently in various contexts, such as contrasting statements or resuming interrupted discourse, with notable examples in Matthew and 2 Corinthians.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

The Greek word ἐκ (transliterated as ek) is a preposition that means 'from' or 'out of,' governing the genitive case. It indicates origin, separation, or motion away from a place, time, or cause. In the New Testament, it is used to denote various relationships, such as source or distinction, and appears in contexts like John 6:31 and Matthew 1:3. Different lexicons highlight its versatility in both literal and metaphorical senses.
ἐκ (ἐξ),
prep. c. gen.,
from out of, from (see Addendum, p. 492).
ἐκ, before a vowel ἐξ,
prep. c. gen.,

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

The Greek word Καῖσαρ (Kaisar) means 'Caesar' and is a title for the Roman emperor. It appears in several New Testament passages, including Matthew 22:17 and Luke 2:1. The entries indicate that it originally referred to Julius Caesar but later became a general title for Roman emperors. Moulton & Milligan note its use in various contexts, including references to officials and freedmen associated with the emperor.
Καῖσαρ, -apos [Bttm. 16 (15) ], 6, Cesar (prop. the surname of JuliusCaesar, which being adopted by Octavianus Augustus and his successors afterwards became an appellative, and was appropriated by the Roman emperors as a part of their title [ef. Dict. of Biogr. and Mythol. s. v. Caesar]): Mt. xxii. 17, 21; Mk. xii. 14, 16 sq.; Lk. ii. 1; iii. 1; xx. 22; xxiii. 2; Jn. xix.12; Acts xi. 28 [Rec.]; xvii. 7, etc.; Phil. iv. 22.
Καῖσαρ. Lightfoot (2:13 p. 169 ff.) has shown that by the phrase οἱ ἐκ τῆς Καίσαρος οἰκίας in Phil 42% we are probably to | | understand slaves and freedmen attached to the palace, and has appealed to inscriptional evidence to prove that the designation embraced a large number of persons both in Rome and elsewhere (e.g. Ephesus), filling every description of more or less domestic office: see further SH p. 418 ff. In BGU I. 1563 (A.p. 201) χρηματίσατε Σατουρνείνῳ Καισάρων οἰκονόμῳ, Wilcken (Oséy. i. p. 499 n.4) holds that Καισάρων stands for Καισάρων δούλῳ : similarly in P Lond 256 recto (A.D. 11-15) (=I. p. 96) Φαῦστος Πρίσκου Καίσαρος -- &.

The Greek word οἰκία (lemma: oikia) refers to a house or dwelling, often used to denote a household or family. It is derived from οἶκος and is frequently found in the New Testament, such as in Matthew 2:11 and 2 Corinthians 5:1, where it can also metaphorically refer to the body as the dwelling of the soul. The distinction between οἰκία and οἶκος is noted, with the former typically indicating the dwelling itself and the latter encompassing the entire estate.

hous'-hold: Three words are usually found in the Bible where the family is indicated. These three are the Hebrew word bayith and the Greek words oikia and oikos. The unit of the national life of Israel, from the very beginning, was found in the family. In the old patriarchal days each family was complete within itself, the oldest living sire being the unquestioned head of the whole, possessed of almost arbitrary powers. The house and the household are practically synonymous. God had called Abraham "that he might command his children and household after him" (Ge 18:19). The Passover-lamb was to be eaten by the "household" (Ex 12:3). The "households" of the rebels in the camp of Israel shared their doom (Nu 16:31-33;
