Context — Paul's Instructions on Epaphroditusgenerated
Philippians 2:29 encourages the church to receive Epaphroditus warmly and to hold him and others like him in high regard. Paul highlights Epaphroditus's dedication and sacrifice for the work of Christ, which is a model for how believers should treat one another. This aligns with the broader theme in Philippians of unity and mutual support within the church, as seen in earlier verses.

The Key Word — προσδέχεσθε, prosdechomaigenerated
The verb προσδέχομαι means to welcome or receive someone favorably. It is formed from the prefix προς (toward) and the root δέχομαι (to receive), indicating an active and positive reception. This word appears in contexts where acceptance is emphasized, such as in Luke 15:2.
As a present imperative verb, it conveys an ongoing action, urging the Philippians to continually welcome Epaphroditus with open hearts, reflecting the joy and honor that should characterize their relationships.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The main translation used here is the Berean Standard Bible, which states, "Welcome him in the Lord with great joy, and honor men like him." Other translations generally agree, with variations in phrasing.
For instance, the KJV and ASV use "Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy; and hold such in honor," while the YLT and WEB also emphasize the joy and honor due to Epaphroditus. The differences mainly arise in the choice of words like "receive" versus "welcome".
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse is structured around two main actions: welcoming Epaphroditus and honoring those like him. The finite verb προσδέχεσθε (you welcome) governs the main clause, while the phrases that follow describe how this should be done — in the Lord and with great joy.
The second part of the verse emphasizes the honor due to men like Epaphroditus, connecting both actions to the character and actions of faithful servants in the church.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
προσδέχομαι does not have a direct equivalent in the Septuagint but relates to concepts of welcoming or accepting favorably, similar to the Hebrew word רָצָה (H7521), meaning to be pleased with or accept favorably.
This connection highlights the continuity of welcoming and honoring faithful servants in both the Old and New Testaments.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
Excipite itaque illum cum omni gaudio in Domino, et ejusmodi cum honore habetote ;
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.

προσδέχομαι is built from the prefix προς (to, toward) and the root δέχομαι (to receive). It covers meanings such as to receive favorably, admit, and expect or wait for. In the New Testament, it appears in verses like Luke 15:2 and Romans 16:2, where it conveys welcoming or accepting others.

The Greek word οὖν (oun) is a particle used to express consequence, sequence, or to resume a narrative. It translates to 'therefore,' 'then,' or 'accordingly,' and appears frequently in the New Testament, such as in Matthew 3:10 and Romans 5:9. It can also serve in exhortations and questions, indicating what follows logically from previous statements.

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.

κύριος is a Greek word meaning 'lord' or 'master,' derived from the concept of authority. It is used in various contexts, referring to God, Jesus, and earthly masters. In the New Testament, it often denotes divine authority, as seen in verses like Matthew 12:8. The term can also express respect when addressing others, such as teachers or magistrates.
A MAN, according to the later Greek grammarians, was δεσπότης in respect of his slaves (Plato, Legg. vi. 756 e), therefore οἰκοδεσπότης, but κύριος in regard of his wife and children ; who in speaking either to him or of him, would give him this title of honour; “as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord” (κύριον αὐτὸν καλοῦσα, I Pet. ili. 6: ef. Plutarch, De Virt. Mul. 5. vv. Μίκκα καὶ Meyoro). There is a certain truth in this distinction. Undoubtedly there lies in κύριος the sense of an authority owning limitations—moral limitations it may be; it is implied too that the wielder of this authority will not exclude, in wielding it, a consideration of their good over whom it is exercised; while the δεσπότης exercises a more unrestricted power and absolute domination, confessing no such limitations or restraints. He who addresses another as δέσποτα, puts an emphasis of submission into his…

Lord
There are various Hebrew and Greek words so rendered.
(1.) Heb. Jehovah, has been rendered in the English Bible LORD, printed in small capitals. This is the proper name of the God of the Hebrews. The form “Jehovah” is retained only in Ex. 6:3; Ps. 83:18; Isa. 12:2; 26:4, both in the Authorized and the Revised Version.
(2.) Heb. ‘adon, means one possessed of absolute control. It denotes a master, as of slaves (Gen. 24:14, 27), or a ruler of his subjects (45:8), or a husband, as lord of his wife (18:12).
The old plural form of this Hebrew word is ’adonai. From a superstitious reverence for the name “Jehovah,” the Jews, in reading their Scriptures, whenever that name…
[GOD]
This name belongs to God by preeminence; and in this sense ought never to be given to any creature. Jesus Christ, as the Messiah, the Son of God, and equal with the Father, is often called Lord in Scripture, especially in the writing of Paul. The word LORD, in the English Bible, when printed in small capitals, stands always for JEHOVAH in the Hebrew. See JEHOVAH.

The Greek word μετά (transliterated as meta) is a preposition that can mean 'with,' 'among,' or 'after,' depending on the case it governs (genitive, accusative, or sometimes dative). In the New Testament, it is used to indicate association or companionship, as in Mark 1:29, and to denote sequence in time or place, as seen in Hebrews 9:3. The entries do not show significant disagreement.

The Greek word πᾶς (i.e., *pas*) means 'all' or 'every' and appears in various forms, including masculine, feminine, and neuter. It is used in the New Testament to denote totality, as in 'all things' or 'every kind,' and can function as an adjective or pronoun. Notably, it can also imply 'the whole' when used with definite articles, as seen in verses like Matthew 28:18.

χαρά (chara) means joy or delight, derived from the verb χαίρω (to rejoice). It appears frequently in the New Testament, often contrasting with sorrow or sadness. Notable references include Luke 1:14 and Philippians 1:25. The word encompasses both the feeling of joy and its causes, such as faith or good news.

joi (simchah; chara):
1. Terms:
The idea of joy is expressed in the Old Testament by a wealth of synonymous terms that cannot easily be differentiated. The commonest is simchah (1Sa 18:6, etc.), variously translated in English Versions of the Bible "joy," "gladness," "mirth"; from sameah, properly "to be bright," "to shine" (Pr 13:9, "The light of the righteous rejoiceth," literally, "is bright"), but generally used figuratively "to rejoice," "be glad" (Le 23:40 and very frequent).
Other nouns are masos and sason, both from sus, properly "to spring," "leap," hence, "exult," "rejoice"; rinnah, "shouting." "joy"; gil, from verb gil or gul, "to go in a circle," hence, "be excited" (dancing round for joy), "rejoice." In the New…

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

τοιοῦτος is a Greek word meaning 'such as this' or 'of such a kind.' It is derived from the root τοῖος and is used in various contexts, including descriptions of people or things. In the New Testament, it appears in verses like Matthew 9:8 and Acts 22:22. The lexicons indicate that it can function as a substantive, both with and without an article.

In the New Testament, it appears in contexts highlighting the value or esteem of individuals (e.g., Luke 7:2, Philippians 2:29) and metaphorically for things (e.g., 1 Peter 2:4, 6). There is some debate about its application in Luke 7, where some suggest it may refer to the centurion rather than his servant.
ἔντιμος, -ον
(< τιμή),
[in LXX for חוֹר, etc. ;]
honoured, prized, precious: of persons, Lk 7:2, Phl 2:29; compar., Lk 14:8; of things, metaph., λίθος, I Pe 2:4, 6 (LXX).†
ἔντιμος. In P Hamb I. 3115 (ii/aA.D) a certificate is granted to a retired soldier who had served for 26 years, and been discharged ἐντείμῳ ἀπολύσσει, ‘‘ with honourable release” : cf. for a similar use of the adv. with ἀπολελυμένος of an ““honourably discharged” veteran, P Oxy XII. 14718 (A.D. 81), 26. 1459* (A.D. 226), P Lond 9064 (A.D. 128) (ΞΞ 111. p. 108), BGU IV. 1021? (iii/A.p.), Pretstgke 424, while the magical BGU IV. 10264 (p. 25), ἔντιμος (2. —ov) ὡς Μιχαήλ, ἔνδοξας (/.—ov) [ὡς] Ταβριήλ, ‘ suggests,” as Dr. E. A. Abbott (CR xxxi. p. 153) has pointed out, “ἐᾷ connection between ἔντιμος and the military distinction of Michael, as contrasted with the peaceful glory of Gabriel.” These and similar exx. have led Abbott (z?¢ s.) to the conclusion that in Lk 7? the epithet ἔντιμος is almost certainly misplaced, and should be attached not to the ‘‘ servant” but to the ‘‘centurion” in…

Counted over the 11 Old Testament verses where this Greek word stands: which Hebrew word keeps standing there too. A correspondence of verses rather than a word-by-word alignment, so read the percentage as strength of evidence, not as a claim about any single verse.
τὸν αὐτὸν μέντοι τρόπον καὶ δοξομανοῦντα καὶ ἐπικομπάζοντα βουληθεὶς ὀνειδίσαι μοχθηρόν, δυνηθεὶς ἔντιμος εἶναι μὴ ἀποστραφῇς τὸν παρὰ τοῖς πολλοῖς ἔπαινον·
καὶ πάλιν λέγει ὁ προφήτης, ἐπεὶ ὡς λίθος ἰσχυρὸς ἐτέθη εἰς συντριβήν: Ἰδού, ἐμβαλῶ εἰς τὰ θεμέλια Σιὼν λίθον πολυτελῆ, ἐκλεκτόν, ἀκρογωνιαῖον, ἔντιμον.
οὕτως ἐπηγέρθησαν οἱ ἄτιμοι ἐπὶ τοὺς ἐντίμους, οἱ ἄδοξοι ἐπὶ τοὺς ἐνδόξους, οἱ ἄφρονες ἐπὶ τοὺς φρονίμους, οἱ νέοι ἐπὶ τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους.
The Greek word ἔχω, transliterated as echō, means 'to have' or 'to hold' and is used in various contexts, including possession, ability, and condition. It appears frequently in the New Testament, often relating to physical possession or metaphorical concepts like keeping faith or emotions. Notably, it can also refer to being pregnant, as seen in Matthew 1:18. The entries do not show significant disagreement.

In Re 18:2 for the King James Version "cage" (phulake) the Revised Version (British and American) substitutes, as in first clause, "hold," and in the margin "prison."
Hold
