Easton's Bible Dictionary

Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary

Archippus:

a master of horses

International Standard Bible Encyclopaedia

Archippus:

ar-kip'-us (Archippos): Addressed by Paul in his letter to Philem, as "our fellow-soldier"; probably a member of Philem's family circle, holding some official position in the church (Col 4:17; Phm 1:2). See APPHIA. The tradition that he was one of the seventy disciples, became bishop of Laodicea and later became a martyr, seems to have little historical foundation.

Archippus: A Disciple at Colosse

Col 4:17; Phm 1:2

Smith's Bible Dictionary

Archippus:

(master of the horse) a Christian teacher in Colossae (Colossians 4:17) called by St. Paul his "fellow soldier," Philemon 2. He was probably a member of Philemon's family. (A.D. 62)

Apphia:

af'-i-a, ap'-fi-a (Apphia, dative case of Apphia; in Phm 1:2, though Apphia, Amphia, and Appia, also occur): A Christian of Colosse, probably the wife of Philemon; certainly a member of his household, greeted as "the sister" the Revised Version, margin. In the Greek church, November 22 is sacred to her memory. It has been supposed, since this epistle concerns one household exclusively, that Apphia was Philemon's wife and the mother or sister of ARCHIPPUS (which see). She was stoned to death with Philemon, Onesimus, and Archippus in the reign of Nero. (See Lightfoot, Col., 372.)
