What the Fathers say
Eastern Fathers
John Chrysostom
"The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand;" intimates that the Epistle was composed with great seriousness...
Theophylact of Ohrid
He made a greeting in his own hand, in order to show that he attaches great importance to the epistle.
Western Saints
Thomas Aquinas
He adds his greeting, and concerning this he does two things. First, he puts down a title of the greeting, saying, my greeting, namely is written, by my own hand, by Paul. And he did this in his letters on account of some who wrote false letters under the name of the Apostle. Hence, so that they would not be deceived, after the letter was written by someone, the Apostle writes afterwards at the end in his own hand.
