Exegesis
The structure ouk egō monos alla kai pasai hai ekklēsiai {οὐκ ἐγὼ μόνος ἀλλὰ καὶ πᾶσαι αἱ ἐκκλησίαι | ouk egṓ mónos allà kaí pâsai haí ekklēsiai} forms a "not only... but also" contrast, expanding the subject of gratitude from Paul alone to "all the churches."
In context — Romans 16:4
Who for my life laid down their own neck, to whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles .
