Herodion
Herodion
(, Westcott-Horts Greek Testament Rom 16:11, a Greek name, suggesting connexion with the family of the Herods).-Herodion is saluted by St. Paul and is described as my kinsman ( ). Other kinsmen saluted in Romans 16 are Andronicus and Junias (or Junia) (Rom 16:7), while three kinsmen send salutations in Rom 16:21. That St. Paul means that these poisons were relations of his is unlikely. It is this interpretation which has given rise to one of the difficulties felt in deciding the destination of the passage Rom 16:3-20. Almost certainly we should understand fellow-Jews or fellow-members of my tribe (see Rom 9:5). Lightfoot connects Herodion with the household of Aristobulus saluted in the preceding verse. He considers that Aristobulus was a member of the Herodian family, and that his household would naturally include many Orientals and Jews, and therefore probably some Christians (Philippians4 1878, p. 175). Of the latter, Herodion may have been one. Others have conjectured that Herodion belonged to the household of Narcissus saluted in the verse which follows.

Herodion
he-rodi-on (, Herodon; Westcott and Hort, The New Testament in Greek ): A Roman Christian to whom Paul sent greetings (Rom 16:11). The name seems to imply that he was a freedman of the Herods, or a member of the household of Aristobulus, the grandson of Herod the Great (Rom 16:10). Paul calls him my kinsman, i.e. a Jew (see JUNIAS, 1).
