      1  Paul rejoices to hear of the faith and love of Philemon,
        whom he desires to forgive his servant Onesimus,
        and lovingly to receive him again.
    
    
    VERSE 1

    - Philemon.
      The apostle in this epistle indulges in some fine paronomasais
      on the proper names.  Thus Philemon, [Philemon <5371>,]
      affectionate, or beloved, is 'our dearly beloved;' Apphia,
      ([Apphia <682> from appha,] the affectionate address of a
      brother or sister, according to Suidas,) is 'the beloved
      sister,' as several MSS., Vulgate, and others correctly read;
      Archippus, ([Archippos <751>,] the ruler of the horse, for the
      managing of which heros were anciently famous,) is 'our
      fellow- soldier;' and Onesimus, ([Onesimos <3682>,] useful or
      profitable,) once unprofitable, is now profitable.

              CONCLUDING REMARKS ON THE EPISTLE TO PHILEMON
    
    Philemon appears to have been a person of some consideration at
    Colosse, and in the church at that place, (ver. 1, 2.  Col 4:9,17)
    who had been converted by the ministry of Paul,
    (ver. 19,) probably during his abode at Ephesus, (Ac. 10 19:10)
    Onesimus, a slave of Philemon, having, as it is generally
    thought, been guilty of some dishonesty, fled from his master,
    and came to Rome, where the apostle was at that time under
    confinement the first time, as appears by his expectation of
    being shortly released, (ver. 22,) about A. D. 62.  Having by
    some means attended the preaching of the apostle, 'in his own
    hired house,' (Ac. 16 28:16,23) it pleased God to bless it
    to his conversion.  After he had given satisfactory evidence of
    a real change, and manifested an excellent and amiable
    disposition, which greatly endeared him to Paul, he was sent
    back to his master by the apostle, who wrote this epistle to
    reconcile Philemon to his once unfaithful servant.
