20: εραστος εμεινεν εν κορινθω τροφιμον δε απελιπον εν μιλητω ασθενουντα— edit Textus Receptus
20: Erastus abode at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick.- edit KJV text
20: Erastus remained at Corinth. And Trophimus I left sick at Miletus.— edit Douay text


Erastus. "Rom 16:23".


Abode at Corinth. This was his home, where he filled an important office. "Rom 16:23".

It would seem, that when Paul went to Rome, there was some expectation that he would accompany him, but that reasons had occurred for his remaining in Corinth. His doing so is referred to without blame.

But Trophimus. See Acts 20:4. He was a native of Asia Minor.

Have I left at Miletum sick. Probably he designed to accompany him to Rome, as he had been often with him in his journeys. On the situation of Miletus, or Miletum, "Acts 20:15".
