 See E. Randolph Richards, Paul and First-Century Letter Writing: Secretaries, Composition and Collection (Downer’s Grove: IVP, 2004), Chapter 10. For Ephesians, Colossians, and Philemon, on the basis of Richard’s research, I compute the cost of wax drafts (revised), final papyrus draft, and neat final copies, factoring in secretarial time, would be nearly 16 dinars (approximately equivalent to $1720 today). And that is before Tychicus and Philemon even took the first step of their long journey, with all its costs. Richards himself calculates $2275 for Romans (before dispatch), and just under that for 1 Corinthians. The average length of a papyrus letter was 89 words, so even Philemon, clocking in at 335 words, would seem on the longish side—indeed, longer than the average letter by the prolific Cicero.

 So, e.g., Lincoln, p. 60; O’Brien, p. 135; Hoehner, p. 267 and Arnold, pp. 108-9. Contrast, e.g., Best, pp. 167-68, who considers the topic to be our inheritance amongst the saints, that is, heavenly beings, angels, thereby, of course using a different sense of the word ‘saints’ from elsewhere in the letter.
