Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren which are with me greet you.
Philippians 4:21 belongs to Paul's letter to the Christians in Philippi, written while he was imprisoned in Rome. That letter was addressed to friends in a church that had repeatedly helped to meet his needs. Greeting every believer in Christ is a Christian duty and an expression of courtesy. That instruction applies to ordinary encounters with fellow Christians and not only to formal occasions, so believers should greet one another and parents should teach their children to do so.
