G5060
Tertius served as Paul's scribe, writing down the Epistle to the Romans.
Tertius served as Paul's amanuensis (secretary) in composing the Epistle to the Romans, inserting his own personal greeting to the recipients at Romans 16:22 — the only instance in the New Testament where a letter-writer's scribe identifies himself by name. His greeting, 'I, Tertius, who wrote down this letter, greet you in the Lord,' suggests he was himself a believer and a known figure in the early church. Beyond this single self-identification nothing more is recorded about his background or ministry.
