Paul's last words to Timothy
9 Timothy, please come to see me as soon as you can. 10 Demas has left me and he has gone to Thessalonica city. He wanted to enjoy the things of this world too much.[a] Crescens has gone to Galatia region.[b] Titus has gone to Dalmatia region.[c]
11 Only Luke is with me now.[d] Bring Mark with you when you come. He can help me very much with the work for God.

- 4:10 Paul writes about a man called Demas in Colossians 4:14 and Philemon 24. We do not know if this Demas was the same person. Thessalonica was a city in the north part of the country that we call Greece.
- 4:10 We do not know who Crescens was. Galatia was the east part of the country that we call Turkey.
- 4:10 Titus was a man who had worked with Paul to teach the Christian message. See Galatians 2:1; 2 Corinthians 2:13; 7:6; Titus 1:4-5. Dalmatia was where the country called Albania is now, north and west from Greece.
- 4:11 Luke had travelled and worked with Paul. He wrote the books in the Bible called Luke and Acts. See Acts 16:10-13; Colossians 4:14; Philemon 24.
