<p> ''''' sḗ ''''' - ''''' kun´dus ''''' (Westcott-Hort [[Greek]] text Σέκουνδος , <i> ''''' Sékoundos ''''' </i> , Textus Receptus of the New Testament, Σεκοῦνδος , <i> ''''' Sekoúndos ''''' </i> ): A T hessalonian who was among those who accompanied Paul from [[Greece]] to Asia ( Acts 20:4 ). They had preceded Paul and waited for him at Troas. If he were one of the representatives of the churches in [[Macedonia]] and Greece, entrusted with their contributions to [[Jerusalem]] ( Acts 24:17; 2 Corinthians 8:23 ), he probably accompanied Paul as far as Jerusalem. The name is found in a list of politarchs on a [[Thessalonian]] inscription. </p>
<p> (Σεκοῦνδος [TR[Note: R translated, translation.]], Σέκουνδος [WH[Note: H Westcott-Hort’s [[Greek]] Testament.], Blass]) </p> <p> [[Secundus]] was a [[Macedonian]] [[Christian]] belonging to the church of Thessalonica, by which he and [[Aristarchus]] were deputed to convey to [[Jerusalem]] the contributions of the Thessalonians on behalf of the poor brethren of the mother church. He accompanied St. [[Paul]] on his last journey to Jerusalem (Acts 20:4). The [[Apostle]] on this occasion intended to sail from Corinth, but the discovery of a plot at the last moment caused him to sail for Macedonia, where he may have met the deputies of the churches of [[Thessalonica]] and BerCEa. It is more probable, however, that they had been previously instructed to join the Apostle at Troas, where we find them along with deputies from [[Asia]] (Acts 20:5). It is uncertain whether Secundus remained in [[Syria]] after St. Paul’s arrest or returned to Thessalonica. He is never again mentioned in the NT, but the name occurs in the well-known inscription of Thessalonica (CIG[Note: IG Corpus Inscrip. Graecarum.]ii. 1967), which gives a list of politarchs. </p> <p> Literature.-W. M. Ramsay, St. Paul the Traveller3, 1897, p. 287; R. J. Knowling in Expositor’s Greek Testamentii. [1900] 422; also articles in Hasting's Dictionary of the [[Bible]] (5 vols)and Encyclopaedia Biblica. </p> <p> W. F. Boyd. </p>

<p> <strong> SECUNDUS </strong> . A man of [[Thessalonica]] who accompanied St. [[Paul]] on his journey to [[Jerusalem]] ( Acts 20:4 ), perhaps as a delegate to carry alms from his city. The [[Greek]] of the verse is obscure, but the meaning probably is that [[Aristarchus]] and [[Secundus]] and those mentioned afterwards went direct to [[Troas]] from [[Corinth]] and waited there for the Apostle, who came with [[Sopater]] by way of Macedonia. See Sopater. </p> <p> A. J. Maclean. </p>
