Exegesis
The second clause shifts from an individual to a group with tous ek ton Aristoboulou {τοὺς ἐκ τῶν Ἀριστοβούλου | toús ek tôn Aristoboúlou}, “those from Aristobulus.”
The preposition ek {ἐκ | ek} plus the genitive ton Aristoboulou {τῶν Ἀριστοβούλου | tôn Aristoboúlou} idiomatically denotes people belonging to or originating from a household or circle associated with Aristobulus, even though the noun “household” is not stated. English therefore supplies “household” or “family” to make the relational nuance explicit. The parallel structure—individual approved in Christ and group associated with a household—highlights the inclusive nature of the greetings, recognizing both personal character and communal affiliation within the Roman congregation.
In context — Romans 16:10
Greet Apelles, the approved one in Christ ; greet those from the household of Aristobulus .
