Dictionary Summary:Lovely, spoken of by Paul ([Col. 1:7](/col#Col.1.7); [4:12](/col#Col.4.12)) as “his dear fellow-servant,” and “a faithful minister of Christ.” He was thus evidently with him at Rome when he wrote to the Colossians. He was a distinguished disciple, and probably the founder of the Colossian church. He is also mentioned in the Epistle to Philemon (1:23), where he is called by Paul his “fellow-prisoner.” 2
