STRONGS G3488:
Νάρκισσος,
Ναρκίσσου,
ὁ,
Narcissus (i. e. 'daffodil'), a Roman mentioned in
Romans 16:11, whom many interpreters without good reason suppose to be the noted freedman of the emperor Claudius (
Suetonius, Claudius 28;
Tacitus, ann. 11, 29f; 12, 57 etc.) (cf.
Lightfoot on Philip., p. 175); in opposition to this opinion cf.
Winers RWB, under the word; Rüetschi in
Herzog x., 202f; (
B. D., under the word).
