chain <5026 254> [this chain.]

That is, the chain with which he was bound to the "soldier that kept him;" (ver. 16;) a mode of custody which Dr. Lardner has shown was in use among the Romans. It is in exact conformity, therefore, with the truth of St. Paul's situation at this time, that he declares himself to be "an ambassador in a chain," [en <\\See definition 1722\\> halusis <\\See definition 254\\>,] (Eph 6:20;) and the exactness is the more remarkable, as [halusis <\\See definition 254\\>,] a chain is no where used in the singular number to express any other kind of custody.
