Secundus
( [TR [Note: R translated, translation.] ], [WH [Note: H Westcott-Horts Greek Testament.] , Blass])
Secundus was a Macedonian Christian belonging to the church of Thessalonica, by which he and Aristarchus were deputed to convey to Jerusalem the contributions of the Thessalonians on behalf of the poor brethren of the mother church. He accompanied St. Paul on his last journey to Jerusalem (Act 20:4). The Apostle on this occasion intended to sail from Corinth, but the discovery of a plot at the last moment caused him to sail for Macedonia, where he may have met the deputies of the churches of Thessalonica and BerCEa. It is more probable, however, that they had been previously instructed to join the Apostle at Troas, where we find them along with deputies from Asia (Act 20:5). It is uncertain whether Secundus remained in Syria after St. Pauls arrest or returned to Thessalonica. He is never again mentioned in the NT, but the name occurs in the well-known inscription of Thessalonica (CIG [Note: IG Corpus Inscrip. Graecarum.] ii. 1967), which gives a list of politarchs.

Secundus
SECUNDUS.A man of Thessalonica who accompanied St. Paul on his journey to Jerusalem (Act 20:4), perhaps as a delegate to carry alms from his city. The Greek of the verse is obscure, but the meaning probably is that Aristarchus and Secundus and those mentioned afterwards went direct to Troas from Corinth and waited there for the Apostle, who came with Sopater by way of Macedonia. See Sopater.

Secundus
se-kundus (Westcott-Hort Greek text , Sekoundos, Textus Receptus of the New Testament, , Sekoundos): A Thessalonian who was among those who accompanied Paul from Greece to Asia (Act 20:4). They had preceded Paul and waited for him at Troas. If he were one of the representatives of the churches in Macedonia and Greece, entrusted with their contributions to Jerusalem (Act 24:17; 2Co 8:23), he probably accompanied Paul as far as Jerusalem. The name is found in a list of politarchs on a Thessalonian inscription.
