Thayer's Greek Lexicon
σύνδουλος, συνδούλου, ὁ (σύν and δοῦλος), a fellow-servant; one who serves the same master with another; thus used of
a. the associate of a servant (or slave) in the proper sense: Mat 24:49.
b. one who with others serves (ministers to) a king: Mat 18:28-29; Mat 18:31; Mat 18:33.
c. the colleague of one who is Christ’s servant in publishing the gospel: Col 1:7; Col 4:7 ((where cf. Lightfoot)).
d. one who with others acknowledges the same Lord, Jesus, and obeys his commands: Rev 6:11.
e. one who with others is subject to the same divine authority in the Messianic economy: so of angels as the fellow-servants of Christians, Rev 19:10; Rev 22:9. (Moeris says, p. 273, ὁμόδουλος ἀττικως, σύνδουλος ἑλληνικως. But the word is used by Aristophanes, Euripides, Lysias.)
