This eBook was produced by David Widger with the help of Derek Andrew's text from January 1992 and the work of Bryan Taylor in November 2002 "The Bible, King James version, Book 57: Philemon by Anonymous" is a biblical epistle written in the first century AD, during the early development of the Christian church. This short letter, part of the New Testament, is classified as a religious text that addresses themes of forgiveness, reconciliation, and Christian love. It is particularly notable for its personal nature and pastoral tone. The letter is addressed to Philemon, a Christian slaveowner, concerning Onesimus, a runaway slave who has encountered Paul while he is imprisoned. Paul pleads with Philemon to forgive Onesimus and receive him back not just as a slave but as a beloved brother in Christ. He expresses gratitude for Philemon's faith and encourages him to act out of love rather than obligation. Paul also offers to repay any debts Onesimus may owe and expresses hope for his own release and future visitation. Through this missive, Paul exemplifies the teachings of love and forgiveness central to Christian doctrine. (This is an automatically generated summary.) en Bible. Epistles of Paul Bible.
