YOKEFELLOW (σύνζυγος, yoked together). A word found only in Philippians 4:3: “And I ask you also, true yokefellow, help these women.” The Gr. word σύνζυγος is taken by some interpreters as a proper name, although it is not found anywhere else as such; and many suggestions have been made in regard to the identity of the person: Luke, Lydia, Epaphroditus, Barnabas, Silas, Timothy, Paul’s wife. It may be a way of describing the leader of the church at Philippi. Conjectures are legion.
