EUBULO.
A prominent member
of the community of
Rome, mentioned in
II Tim. 4:21.
He is the first of the
group that greets
Timothy: Pudens,
Linus, and
Claudia follow; but the order
could be purely
casual. On the other hand,
the importance
and position of the
others mentioned are
unknown (it is
very probable, however,
that Linus was the
future successor of
Peter); hence nothing
can be deduced
about E. Nor
can anything be
inferred about his origin
from his name, which
was very widespread,
■ among the Greeks. They commemorate him with Ninfa on 28 February, giving both of them the title of apostles.
