In the Greek, the word "ὡς" (hōs) is used, which can mean "as" or "like." This suggests a comparison or similarity, emphasizing the unity and common purpose among Paul's companions. It highlights the collaborative nature of early Christian ministry, where each person contributed to the mission of spreading the Gospel.<p><b>Mark</b><br />Mark, also known as John Mark, is a significant figure in the New Testament. He is traditionally credited with writing the Gospel of Mark. His journey with Paul and Barnabas on their missionary journeys is well-documented in Acts. Despite a temporary falling out with Paul (<a href="/acts/15-37.htm">Acts 15:37-39</a>), Mark is later seen as a valuable co-worker, illustrating themes of reconciliation and forgiveness. The Greek name "Μᾶρκος" (Markos) reflects his Roman heritage, indicating the diverse backgrounds of early Christian leaders.<p><b>Aristarchus</b><br />Aristarchus is mentioned several times in the New Testament as a companion of Paul. His name, "Ἀρίσταρχος" (Aristarchos), means "best ruler" or "excellent leader" in Greek, suggesting a noble character. He is described as a fellow prisoner with Paul in <a href="/colossians/4-10.htm">Colossians 4:10</a>, indicating his dedication and willingness to suffer for the Gospel. Aristarchus's presence in this list underscores the theme of steadfastness and loyalty in the face of persecution.<p><b>Demas</b><br />Demas is a more enigmatic figure. His name, "Δημᾶς" (Dēmas), is of Greek origin, meaning "popular" or "of the people." Initially, he is listed as a fellow worker, but later, in <a href="/2_timothy/4-10.htm">2 Timothy 4:10</a>, Paul notes that Demas deserted him, "because he loved this world." This contrast serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of worldly temptations and the importance of perseverance in faith.<p><b>Luke</b><br />Luke, the beloved physician, is the author of the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles. His Greek name, "Λουκᾶς" (Loukas), suggests a background of Hellenistic culture. Luke's detailed accounts of Jesus' life and the early church provide invaluable historical and theological insights. His inclusion as a fellow worker highlights the importance of diverse gifts and professions in the service of the Gospel, as well as the role of careful documentation and scholarship in the Christian tradition.<p><b>my fellow workers</b><br />This phrase, "συνεργοί μου" (synergoi mou), translates to "my co-laborers" or "my fellow workers." It emphasizes the collaborative effort in the ministry of the early church. The root "συνεργός" (synergos) combines "syn" (together) and "ergon" (work), illustrating the partnership and unity among believers. This collective effort is a powerful testament to the body of Christ working together, each member contributing their unique gifts for the advancement of the Kingdom of God. It serves as an inspiration for modern believers to engage in cooperative ministry, valuing each person's contribution to the mission.<span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/philemon/1-24.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">[as do] Mark,</span><br /><span class="grk">Μᾶρκος</span> <span class="translit">(Markos)</span><br /><span class="parse">Noun - Nominative Masculine Singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_3138.htm">Strong's 3138: </a> </span><span class="str2">Of Latin origin; Marcus, a Christian.</span><br /><br /><span class="word">Aristarchus,</span><br /><span class="grk">Ἀρίσταρχος</span> <span class="translit">(Aristarchos)</span><br /><span class="parse">Noun - Nominative Masculine Singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_708.htm">Strong's 708: </a> </span><span class="str2">From the same as ariston and archo; best ruling; Aristarchus, a Macedonian.</span><br /><br /><span class="word">Demas,</span><br /><span class="grk">Δημᾶς</span> <span class="translit">(Dēmas)</span><br /><span class="parse">Noun - Nominative Masculine Singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_1214.htm">Strong's 1214: </a> </span><span class="str2">Demas, a helper of Paul in Rome.
