Who was Apphia?
Apphia is named among the recipients of Paul's letter to Philemon. The greeting calls her a sister. The text does not explain her family relationship to Philemon or give a detailed account of her life.
Apphia is included in the greeting alongside other members of a house-church community. A person's brief mention can still show that they belong in the story.
