  1. I love it William. I always read it as God will take revenge on my brother. So like God to repay. What a beautiful lesson. Thanks.

  2. This is so true because One of God’s names is Jehovah-jireh,
    meaning God will provide he will see to it, this is what Issac learned laying on the alter and later taught Joseph and Joseph carried this down into Egypt.
    So I do have a question, was not Onenismus a runway slave whom Paul interceded for. And usually slaves with Jews had debts they were working off. So Paul was not only asking for Onenismus to be forgiven for running away, but possibly his debt to him?

    • Paul was offering to pay off anything that Onesimus owed to Philemon, but was evidently hoping that Philemon would simply forgive the debt instead.
