To the holy among the Colossians, and the faithful brethren in Christ: Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Footnotes
| 1 | Colossians 1:2 Κολοσσαῖς is plural, feminine. The term Κολοσσαῖς, originally denoting the inhabitants of the ancient city of Colossae in Phrygia (modern Honaz), derives from the root κολοσσ-, which conveys notions of vastness and grandeur (cf. κολοσσικός, “colossal,” and related adjectives). This semantic connection allows a poetic extension of Κολοσσαῖς beyond its geographic reference to mean “the colossal ones,” a figurative or creative usage reflecting immense size or importance. Such an interpretation aligns with ancient Greek tendencies to transform ethnonyms or toponyms into metaphorical epithets. |
