Epaphroditus was the emissary from philippi to rome, 800 miles by land and sea. He's coming to meet the needs of the apostle paul. So receive him. Receive him in the lord with all joy and honor. Such men, for he nearly died for the work of christ,. risking his life to literally fill up what was lacking. It's the same wording translated complete in the e. S v. Same word, fill up what is lacking in your service to me? Was that me?
