2 John 1:13

13 The children of thine elect sister greet thee.

2 John 1:13 Meaning and Commentary

2 John 1:13

The children of thy elect sister greet thee. Amen.
] Not the members of a sister church, as some think; but the children of one who was the sister of this lady, according to the flesh; and who, as she was either a very famous and excellent person, or rather one chosen of God likewise unto eternal life and salvation; and whose children also were walking in the truth, and here send their Christian salutation to their aunt; very likely those sister's children lived at Ephesus, where John resided.

2 John 1:13 In-Context

11 for he who greets him partakes in his wicked works.
12 Having many things to write to you, I would not with paper and ink; but hope to come to you, and to speak mouth to mouth, that our joy may be full.
13 The children of thine elect sister greet thee.
