New Testament

Tertius

The scribe who penned the Epistle to the Romans as dictated by the Apostle Paul.

Tertius is identified in Romans 16:22 as the amanuensis, or scribe, who recorded Paul's letter to the church in Rome. His inclusion serves as a rare personal glimpse into the physical process of apostolic letter-writing. By explicitly greeting the believers in Rome, he is recognized as a fellow brother in Christ and a contributor to the preservation of the Pauline corpus.
