Tryphe'na. Tryphena and Trypho'sa. (luxurious). Two Christian women at Rome, enumerated in the conclusion of St. Paul's letter. Romans 16:12. (A.D. 55). They may have been sisters, but it is more likely that they were fellow deaconesses. We know nothing more of these two sister workers of the apostolic time.
