Misinterpretations often treat this as an elitist directive to greet only a select group of exceptionally holy individuals while excluding ordinary people, overlooking that 'saints' biblically refers to every believer in Christ; others might view it as a rigid liturgical command for formal greetings rather than a heartfelt, conventional epistolary expression of communal warmth and solidarity at the letter's end.
Philippians 4:21
King James Version (1769)
21 Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren which are with me greet you.
Paul's closing salutation to the believers in Philippi, addressed as saints in Christ Jesus, emphasizes the unity and shared identity of all Christians as holy ones set apart by faith, while relaying greetings from his companions highlights the interconnected family bonds within the global church, encouraging mutual encouragement and affection among brethren despite physical separation.
