Philemon 1:18 Meaning and Commentary

Philemon 1:18

If he hath wronged thee
By squandering away his time, spoiling his work, or corrupting his fellow servants:

or oweth thee ought;
by embezzling his master's goods, robbing him of his money, and running away from his service:

put that on mine account;
Signifying that he would be answerable for all, and make good all debts and damages.

Philemon 1:18 In-Context

16 no longer as a slave, but better than a slave, as a loved brother. I love him very much, but you will love him even more, both as a person and as a believer in the Lord.
17 So if you consider me your partner, welcome Onesimus as you would welcome me.
18 If he has done anything wrong to you or if he owes you anything, charge that to me.
19 I, Paul, am writing this with my own hand. I will pay it back, and I will say nothing about what you owe me for your own life.
20 So, my brother, I ask that you do this for me in the Lord: Refresh my heart in Christ.
