• "Rufus" is saluted. Expositors seem to agree that he is the same person mentioned in Mark 15:21. It says that "Simon a Cyrenian" was compelled by the Roman soldiers to carry the tail end of the cross of our Lord "behind" Him (Luke 23:26). Then there follows a comment that seems to be a casual remark-"the father of Alexander and Rufus." From the way Mark inserts this, it seems that the relationship was so well-known among the saints that Paul didn't need to expand upon it. (“Appendix: Romans 16” by B. Anstey)
