The plural "GRAMATA" refers to the many letters in the singular epistle, as in Gal. 6:11 IDETE EN PHKILOIS GRAMSIN UMIN EGRAPSA.

Wouldn't it be "I received your letters ..." (plural)?

that such a father remembered me."

I tried to send this message earlier, but I didn't receive a receipt that
it
posted.  Here goes again.

Could someone please help me render the following text (from
Moulton-Milligan, s.v. MEGALUNW):

AIDE (=EDE) XAMHN SOU TA GRAMMATA, KURIE MOU PATER, KAI PANU EMEGALUNQHN
KAI
HGALLEIASA OTEI TOIOUTOS MOU PATHR THN MNHMHN POIEITAI

With much appreciation,
Scott Wells
