New Testament
Nereus
A Christian in Rome greeted by the Apostle Paul in his letter to the Roman church.
Nereus is mentioned only once in Romans 16:15, where Paul sends him personal greetings alongside others in the Roman house church. While little is known of his life, his inclusion highlights the diverse community of believers Paul recognized in the capital. He serves as a representative of the faithful, unnamed individuals who supported the early spread of the Gospel.
