( Ἑρμῆς , Hermḗs ): The name of a Roman Christian, otherwise unknown, to whom Paul sent greetings ( Romans 16:14 ). "Hermes is among the commonest slave names. In the household alone probably not less than a score of persons might be counted up from the inscriptions, who bore this name at or about the time when Paul wrote" (Lightfoot, Philippians , 176).
