Philippians 4:22

‘All the saints salute you, especially those who are of Caesar's household.'

The greeting then widens to encompass the whole church in the city from which he was writing, probably Rome. ‘All the saints (true believers) salute you.' It is noteworthy that no ‘notable' is separated out. There was no separate hierarchy. They were all ‘brothers and sisters' in Christ. And he then adds, ‘especially those of Caesar's household'. This was a bold declaration that even in the wider household of Caesar there were those who acknowledged Jesus Christ. This description would be a wide one and would include soldiers, servants and slaves who directly served Caesar, and wore his ‘uniform'. There would be such in many large cities throughout the empire. It was a reminder that the Kingly Rule of God had even extended over many in Caesar's household. God was active at the very heart of the empire, and wooing even Caesar's servants to Himself.
