Paul is depicted in the letter, which may have been written after his death, as anticipating his being put to death and realities beyond in his valedictory found in 2 Timothy 4:6–8: "For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith ...
He also entreats Timothy to come to him before winter, and to bring Mark with him. Paul clearly anticipates his being put to death and realities beyond in his valedictory found in 2 Timothy 4:6–8. [40]
In 2 Timothy 1:16-18, Paul sends a greeting to the man’s household in Ephesus and refers to the help he showed Paul earlier in Ephesus.

Carpus of Beroea (Greek: Κάρπος) of the Seventy Disciples is commemorated by the Church on 26 May with St. Alphaeus, and on 4 January with the rest of the Seventy Disciples. In his second Epistle to Timothy ( 2 Timothy 4:13 ), Paul requests, "The phelonion that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring with thee, and the books."
The theory proposes that a number of passages (1 Cor. 4:17, 16.10; 2 Cor. 2:13, 7:6, 13–14, 12:18; and Acts 19.22) all refer to the same journey of a single individual, variously called Titus and Timothy. This theory is complicated by various details from Pauline episles.
