(Murdock) "And the son of Paul's sister, heard of this plot: and he went into the castle, and informed Paul."
Colossians 4:10 does have a word 'anepsios' (cousin) but the Syriac has 'uncle's son' (bar-dodeh)
It's interesting. It also might be an Aramic primacy example. Acts 23:16 is literally translated into Greek. But in Colossians an alternative has been used.
