Charles Ellicott Commentary 1 Corinthians 16:21

"The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand." — 1 Corinthians 16:21 (ASV)

The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand.—It was the Apostle’s habit to dictate his Epistles, but to add a few words at the end in his own handwriting. (See 2 Thessalonians 3:17.) The concluding verses here are accordingly St. Paul’s autograph. The earlier portions had been written by Sosthenes. (See 1 Corinthians 1:1.)
