What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "Who was Jesus Justus in the Letter to the Colossians?"
Answer
The provided quotations contain no statement about Jesus Justus. While the context of the Letter to the Colossians and Paul’s co‑workers in Rome repeatedly mentions companions such as Mark, Timothy, Tychicus, Aristarchus and Epaphras, Jesus Justus is not mentioned or described in any of the available texts.
Therefore the documents do not give a direct answer to the question of who Jesus Justus was in the Letter to the Colossians.
Co‑workers of Paul in Rome
»Among Paul's helpers in Rome were many of his former companions and co‑workers. Luke, “the beloved physician,” who had accompanied him on the journey to Jerusalem, through the two‑year imprisonment in Caesarea and on his perilous journey to Rome, was still with him. Timothy also served him as a comfort. Tychicus, “a beloved brother and faithful servant and fellow worker in the Lord,” stood nobly beside the apostle. Demas and Mark were also with him. Aristarchus and Epaphras were his “fellow prisoners.”«
Paul recommends Mark to the Colossians
»Paul later reconciled with Mark and took him on as a co‑worker. He also recommended him to the Colossians as one who was a co‑worker “in the kingdom of God” and “a comfort to me.” Again, not long before his own death, he spoke of Mark as “useful” to him “for service.”«
