Grace be with you all, Amen.] Which is the apostle's usual salutation in all his epistles, (<530317>2 Thessalonians 3:17,18) in which he wishes renewed discoveries of the love and favour of God; fresh communications of grace from Christ; an abundant supply of the spirit of grace; an increase of internal grace and external gifts; and a continuance of the Gospel of the grace of God. Of “Amen”, (see Gill on “<581321>Hebrews 13:21”). The subscription of this epistle is, written to the Hebrews from Italy by Timothy; in the Alexandrian copy it is, “written to the Hebrews from Rome”; which is very probable, since the Italian brethren send their salutations in it; and the words, “by Timothy”, are left out; nor is it likely that it should, since it is clear, from (<581323>Hebrews 13:23) that he was absent from the apostle; and if he had sent it by him, what need was there to inform them that he was set at liberty?
