This man Justus is found in the epistle to the Colossians, where Paul refers to him as “Jesus (the one we call Justus)” (Colossians 4:11, NLT). This Justus was a Jewish Christian and co-worker of Paul who sent his greetings to the church in Colossae. He was one of Paul’s three close friends—the others being Aristarchus and Mark—who comforted Paul greatly during his imprisonment in Rome. Jesus Justus is mentioned nowhere else in the Bible, and nothing more is known about him through history. However, his inclusion in Paul’s letter stresses his importance and loyalty in supporting Paul’s ministry.
