Patrobas

Patrobas is named once in scripture, among the believers Paul greets at the close of his letter to the Roman church.

A Believer at Rome

In the chain of personal greetings that closes Romans, Patrobas appears in a cluster of five names along with the company gathered around them: "Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers who are with them" (Ro 16:14). The grouping suggests a household or circle of believers known to Paul by name; Patrobas is included as one of them, with no further detail given.
