Charles Ellicott Commentary Romans 15:33

"Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen." — Romans 15:33 (ASV)

Amen.—The weight of manuscript authority is decidedly in favor of retaining this word, though it is omitted by three manuscripts of some importance.

It does not, however, follow that the benediction was intended, as some have thought, to close the Epistle. Intercalated benedictions and doxologies are frequent in the writings of St. Paul. (Romans 11:36; Galatians 5:0; Ephesians 3:20–21, and others)
