Euodia and Syntyche
Euodia (Greek , meaning unclear, but possibly "sweet fragrance"〔See (definition here. )〕〔See (definition here. )〕 or "prosperous journey"〔See possible alternative (definition here. )〕) and Syntyche (, "fortunate," literally "with fate") are people mentioned in the New Testament. They were female members of the church in Philippi, and according to the text of Philippians 4: 2-3, they were involved in a disagreement together. The author of the letter, Paul the Apostle, whose writings generally reveal his misgivings that internal disunity will seriously undermine the church, beseeched the two women to "agree in the Lord". Euodia was the old name of a plant genus that has been changed to Tetradium.
==Gender confusion==
Despite the clear context and gender agreement of the original Greek text, the Authorised Version of the Bible incorrectly assigns Euodia the name "Euodias" (the male gender version of the name) and thus makes the quarrel appear to be between a man and a woman. According to some sources〔See for example William Barclay, "The Letters to the Philippians, Colossians and Thessalonians", published by The St Andrew Press (Edinburgh), Revised Edition 1975, pages 72-73.〕 there was a historical theory that Euodias (male) was the gaoler of Philippi (see Acts 16: 25-34) and Syntyche was his wife. This theory is rejected by modern scholarship, not least because of the clarity in the original text that both characters are female. As a Roman colony, Philippi gave a level of independence to women that was not common in most Greek cities of the period; this may account for the prominence of the women and their disagreement.
There are references to a "Euodia" (again mistaking the name as a male form) in the document Apostolic Constitutions, which purports to be a set of writings of the twelve Apostles of Jesus, but is in fact a bogus source, dated to the fourth century AD, and believed to originate in Syria.〔Wikipedia, "Apostolic Constitutions", (Global), 2014.〕
