Philemon 1

Treated in 4 passages across the library.

  • 1:7 For I had much joy and comfort in thy love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through thee, brother. 1
  • 1:9 yet for love’s sake I rather beseech, being such a one as Paul the aged, and now a prisoner also of Christ Jesus: 1
  • 1:10 I beseech thee for my child, whom I have begotten in my bonds, Onesimus, 1
  • 1:11 who once was unprofitable to thee, but now is profitable to thee and to me: 1
  • 1:12 whom I have sent back to thee in his own person, that is, my very heart: 1
  • 1:13 whom I would fain have kept with me, that in thy behalf he might minister unto me in the bonds of the gospel: 1
  • 1:14 but without thy mind I would do nothing; that thy goodness should not be as of necessity, but of free will. 1
  • 1:21 Having confidence in thine obedience I write unto thee, knowing that thou wilt do even beyond what I say. 1
