1 Corinthians 16:19

John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible · John Gill (1697–1771) · Public Domain

The churches of Asia salute you,.... The Syriac version renders it, "all" the churches. This shows, that this epistle was not written from Philippi, as the subscription to it attests, for then he would rather have said; the churches of Macedonia salute you, but at Ephesus, where he now was; see ; and this is the more confirmed, by the following salutation of Aquila and Priscilla, who it is plain from Ac 18:18, were with the apostle at Ephesus:Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord; Aquila was a Jew of Pontus, and Priscilla was his wife, who came from Italy, all Jews being obliged to depart from Rome, by the order of Claudius Caesar.
