“All my state shall Tychicus declare unto you, who is a beloved brother, and a faithful minister and fellowservant in the Lord:”
King James Version (KJV)
4:6 Let your speech be always with grace - Seasoned with the grace of God, as flesh is with salt.
Col 4:7 All my state shall Tychicus declare unto you. On Tychicus, see PNT "Eph 6:21". He carried the Epistle to the Ephesians, and that to the Colossians on the same journey. He was probably a native of Ephesus, and was one of Paul's most trusted evangelists. See Ac 20:4 2Ti 4:12 Tit 3:12. It should be kept in mind that all Paul's Epistles were sent by messengers. There were no postal arrangements for carrying private letters such as exist in our times.
