 I think that the Apostle sent his letter by Epaphroditus, who probably also wrote it from the Apostle’s dictation; as was done with regard to all the epistles, except that to the Galatians, which, as he tells us, he wrote with his own hand. When therefore he says (ch. 4:3), “True [or faithful] yokefellow,” he speaks as I think, of Epaphroditus, and addresses him. (Philippians 4 by J.N. Darby)
