Discovery BoxColossians 4:7 
ContextPersonal Greetings and Instructions
4:7 Tychicus, a dear brother, faithful minister, and fellow slave 1 in the Lord, will tell you all the news about me. 2
Colossians 4:9
Context4:9 I sent him 3 with Onesimus, the faithful and dear brother, who is one of you. 4 They will tell 5 you about everything here.
1 tn See the note on “fellow slave” in 1:7.
2 tn Grk “all things according to me.”
3 tn The Greek sentence continues v. 9 with the phrase “with Onesimus,” but this is awkward in English, so the verb “I sent” was inserted and a new sentence started at the beginning of v. 9 in the translation.
4 tn Grk “is of you.”
5 tn Grk “will make known to you.” This has been simplified in the translation to “will tell.”
