Acts of Peter and Andrew, and of others, Alexander<br />

were his companions in the country of the barbarians ;<br />

1. Rom. 16x3, -. as a Roman Christian. well known to<br />
Paul and to the Christians in Rome as being 'the elect<br />
(or the chosen) in the Lord.' We do not know the<br />
force of this exoresrion. Weizsacker thinks that it<br />
hints at some special circumstances connected with his<br />
conveclion. B. Weiss, Sanday-Headlam interpret :<br />
'eminent ar a Christian.' In any case it rill be an<br />
esithrton ornonr to celebrate the friend of Paul, the<br />
supposed author, who goes on to salute .his mother<br />
and mine.' as if the Roman u.ife had once kindly treated<br />
him, who had not yet been in Rome. The list of greetings<br />

additions are fanciful ; cp ROMANS (EPISTLE)..4ccord-<br />
ing to Epiphaniur this Rufus was reckoned among the<br />
seventy 'others' (apostles), Lk. 10.. A Spanish Local<br />
tradition makes him the first bishop of Tortosa, conse-<br />
crated by Paul. Another tell3 us that he war conrecrated<br />
bishop of the Egyptian Thrber by Peter. His<br />
birthday is said to have been the 8th or the 19th Aprii ;<br />
