Epaphras

You learned it from Epaphras, our dear fellow-slave and a faithful worker for the Messiah on your behalf;

Epaphras sends greetings; he is one of you, a slave of the Messiah Yeshua who always agonizes in his prayer on your behalf, praying that you may stand firm, mature and fully confident, as you devote yourselves completely to God’s will.

Epaphras, my fellow-prisoner for the sake of the Messiah Yeshua, sends greetings to you,
