‏ Colossians 4:18

 Of me Paul with mine own hand ( τη εμη χειρ Παυλου ). More precisely, "with the hand of me Paul." The genitive  Παυλου is in apposition with the idea in the possessive pronoun  εμη, which is itself in the instrumental case agreeing with  χειρ. So also 2Th 3:17; 1Co 16:21.

 My bonds ( μου των δεσμων ). Genitive case with  μνεμονευετε (remember). The chain ( εν αλυσε Eph 6:20) clanked afresh as Paul took the pen to sign the salutation. He was not likely to forget it himself
