Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834]
Salute Prisca and Aquila - Prisca, or Priscilla, was the wife of Aquila, though her name is sometimes mentioned first. In regard to their history, see the notes at Rom 16:3. They were at Rome when Paul wrote his Epistle to the Romans, but afterward went into Asia Minor, which was the native place of Aquila Act 18:2, and where they probably died. And the household of Onesiphorus; - see the notes on Ti2 1:16.

Vincent's Word Studies, by Marvin R. Vincent [1886]
Salute (ἄσπασαι) Very often in Paul. The singular only here and Tit 3:15. Prisca and Aquila They appear in Corinth, Act 18:2, Act 18:3; in Ephesus, Act 18:18, Act 18:26; Co1 16:19. Onesiphorus Profit-bringer. Comp. Ti2 1:16. One of the punning names so common among slaves. Comp. Chresimus, Chrestus, Onesimus, Symphorus, all of which signify useful or helpful.

Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826
Salute Prisca and Aquila - Several MSS., versions, and fathers have Priscilla instead of Prisca: they are probably the same as those mentioned Act 18:18, Act 18:26. The household of Onesiphorus - See Ti2 1:16. Onesiphorus was probably at this time dead: his family still remained at Ephesus.
