The Backstory to Philemon

Philemon is a short personal letter between the apostle Paul and a wealthy landowner in Colossae. It concerns Onesimus, a slave who had fled from Philemon. It's an exciting example of the gospel and grace and how that can work itself out in the practical affairs of everyday life.    BIBLE READING GUIDE - FREE EBOOK - Get the free eBook, Bible in Life, to help you learn how to read and apply the Bible well:  https://www.listenerscommentary.com   GIVE -  The Listener’s Commentary is a listener supported Bible teaching ministry made possible by the generosity of people like you.
