Women of the Bible: Phoebe Romans 16:1-2

There are many women in the bible, named and un-named, but nonetheless they are mentioned. Through their stories we can learn how God used them and we can see how God can also use us. I pray that through this quick mention of Phoebe you can examine yourself and see the Phoebe inside you and begin to move forward the calling God has in your life.

I’m trying to read and learn the word of god. I’ll admit, at times it’s tricky. You really assisted me in understanding that section
Bless you
Thanks

I assume she is using the niv...this is not the place for a full exegetical explanation but the better translation is 'servant' not deacon just as all the other major translations translate it

Phoebe was young and single, a Greek who had money and influence

What version do you use? KJV says, “Romans 16:1-2
1 I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea:
2 That ye receive her in the Lord, as becometh saints, and that ye assist her in whatsoever business she hath need of you: for she hath been a succourer of many, and of myself also.” It’s just a little different.
