The term "saints" refers to all Christians, emphasizing their sanctification and set-apart status in Christ. This greeting reflects the early church's practice of mutual encouragement and support, as seen in other epistles (e.g., <a href="/romans/16-16.htm">Romans 16:16</a>). The communal aspect of the early church is highlighted, showing the interconnectedness of believers despite physical distances.<p><b>especially those from the household of Caesar</b><br>This phrase reveals the spread of Christianity into influential and unexpected places, such as the imperial household. The "household of Caesar" likely includes servants, freedmen, and possibly family members associated with the Roman Emperor. This demonstrates the reach of the Gospel into the heart of the Roman Empire, fulfilling the Great Commission (<a href="/matthew/28-19.htm">Matthew 28:19-20</a>). It also illustrates the subversive nature of the Gospel, penetrating even the highest echelons of society. The presence of believers in Caesar's household is a testament to the power of the Gospel to transform lives across all social strata, echoing the theme of God's sovereignty and the fulfillment of His purposes (<a href="/philippians/1-12.htm">Philippians 1:12-14</a>).<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/p/paul_the_apostle.htm">Paul the Apostle</a></b><br>The author of the letter to the Philippians, writing from prison in Rome.

Dr. Lightfoot, in a very interesting excursus on this verse, remarking that these Christians of Caesar's household are alluded to as if well known to the Philippians, has examined the various names mentioned in Romans 16. (three years before this time), and finds many of them identical with names actually found in sepulchral inscriptions, as belonging to members of the "domus Augusta," or imperial household. These were earlier converts; but, wherever St. Paul's prison was, he can hardly have failed to gain through the praetorians some communication with the household of the emperor, whose body-guard they were; and the allusion here seems to show that for some reason these Christians of Caesar's household were in an especial familiarity of intercourse with him. Probably, therefore, he had added from that household new converts to Christ; and he mentions this here, as he had before spoken of his bonds being made manifest in the "praetorium" (<a href="/philippians/1-13.htm" title="So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places;">Philippians 1:13</a>), in order to show the Philippians that his very imprisonment had given special opportunity for the spread of the gospel.<p><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/philippians/4.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 22.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">All the saints salute you, chiefly they that are of Caesar's household</span>. All the Christians at Rome, not only St. Paul's personal friends and companions. It is not clear why he lays a special stress on those belonging to Nero's household. The reason given by Chrysostom seems somewhat fanciful: "If those who dwelt in palaces despised all things for the sake of the King of heaven, much more should the Philippians do so." Some of them may have been known to the Philippian Christians. The term <span class="accented">familia</span> or <span class="accented">domus Caesaris</span> included all ranks, from the highest official to the lowest freedman or slave. It is probable that those alluded to here belonged to the humbler classes. But at any rate St. Paul's words prove that his preaching had penetrated into that abyss of all infamy, the palace of Nero. (For the Christianity of Seneca, and the supposed correspondence between him and St. Paul see Bishop Lightfoot's dissertation on 'St. Paul and Seneca.' See also his detached note on 'Caesar's Household.') <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/philippians/4-22.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div><span class="word">All</span><br /><span class="grk">πάντες</span> <span class="translit">(pantes)</span><br /><span class="parse">Adjective - Nominative Masculine Plural<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_3956.htm">Strong's 3956: </a> </span><span class="str2">All, the whole, every kind of.
