Paul of Tarsus, Colossians — The Free Bible
“ Notes ↑ Τιμόθεος ὁ ἀδελφὸς has been translated as 'brother Timothy' as opposed to 'Timothy the brother', since the former better captures the appositional usage of ὁ ἀδελφὸς (as Timothy is not, in any obvious sense, 'the brother') and renders the Greek phrase in appropriately idiomatic English. ”
