Romans16:6
6. Greet Mary , who bestowed much labour on us .
This was a common Name, but the Person here meant was of special note. Ignatius highly commends one of this Name, giving her an ample Character for Wisdom, and Godliness.
This is the Commendation the Apostle gives of this Woman: it is to be understood of her Labour and Service in providing Food, and other Necessaries for the Entertainment of the Faithful; especially, the Preachers of the Gospel: which he acknowledgeth as done to himself, though he had not been at Rome, because of the communion of Saints. Some think this Woman dwel't before at Corinth, or Antioch, or in some other places, where she had ministred unto the Apostle Paul himself.
