Hastings' Dictionary of the New Testament [1]
(Ἀσύγκριτος, or Ἀσύνκριτος, a Greek name)
The first of a group of live names (all Greek) of persons ‘and the brethren with them’ saluted by St. Paul in Romans 16:14. Nothing is known of Asyncritus or of any member of this group. It is suggested that together they formed a separate ἐκκλησία, or church, within the Church of Rome. That such little communities existed in Rome, each with its own place of meeting, would appear from other similar phrases in Romans 16 : ‘the church that is in their house’ ( Romans 16:5), ‘all the saints that are with them’ ( Romans 16:15), and from the references to the Christian members of the ‘households’ of Aristobulus and Narcissus ( Romans 16:10-11). This, of course, assumes the Roman destination of these salutations. If the Ephesian destination be preferred, there is evidence of similar house-churches at Ephesus in 1 Corinthians 16:19, and perhaps in Acts 20:20 (see articlePatrobas). The name Asyncritus has been found in an inscription of a freedman of Augustus (see Sanday-Headlam, Romans 5, 1902, p. 427).
