When in Rome...
Perhaps someone can help me here.
Where does it say that Prisca and Aquilla lived in Rome?
Acts 18:2 says they got booted out of Rome.
Acts 18:18 says they traveled with Paul.
Acts 18:26 has them at Ephesus.
1 Cor 16:19 seems to have them in Asia.
And according to KJV and NASB "greet/salute" is supplied in Rom. 16:5.
The whole context of that section of Romans appears to be that Phoebe from Cenchrea, and Prisca and Aquilla from wherever, were visiting Rome. Looks like maybe Epaenetus was traveling with Prisca and Aquilla. In Paul's commendation of Prisca and Aquilla, he testifies that they have stuck out their own necks for him, and he gives them thanks. He then also relates the gratitude of the churches of the Gentiles and the church which is in their house (presumably back somewhere in Asia, by my reading.)
Does Romans have to have been written before they got chased out of Rome for some reason that I'm not aware of?
