Ephesians 6:21
ESV So that you also may know how I am and what I am doing, Tychicus the beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord will tell you everything.

NASB Now, so that you also may know about my circumstances as to what I am doing, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will make everything known to you.
CSB Tychicus, our dearly loved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will tell you all the news about me so that you may be informed.
NLT To bring you up to date, Tychicus will give you a full report about what I am doing and how I am getting along. He is a beloved brother and faithful helper in the Lord’s work.

What does Ephesians 6:21 mean?

This verse begins the concluding section of the letter, extending through 6:24. Paul expresses a desire to offer additional information about his situation in Rome. In addition to this letter, he seems to be sending a particular person, Tychicus, to the Ephesian church. Tychicus more than likely delivered additional information, along with Paul's written greetings.

Tychicus had served with Paul, as mentioned in Acts 20:4. In addition to delivering the letter to the Ephesians, he also delivered a letter to the Colossian believers, during the same trip. There, he was called "a beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow servant in the Lord" while traveling with Onesimus (Colossians 4:7). This strongly suggests that the letter of Philemon was delivered during this same trip, around the year AD 62. Near the end of Paul's life, a few years later, he will mention sending Tychicus to Ephesus (2 Timothy 4:12) and his plans to send Tychicus to Titus (Titus 3:12). By this, we can conclude that Tychicus was a faithful helper to Paul in the final years of his life.
