16:20 Paul proclaims the ultimate triumph of Christ and His church over all evil in fulfillment of Gen. 3:15. Shortly does not mean “soon,” but “swiftly.” In circumstances of life, as at the end of this age, we may expect God’s conquest of Satan’s workings to be short and sharp.
16:22 Tertius was the secretary (or amanuensis) who wrote while Paul dictated (see Gal. 6:11).
