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 He is no longer like a slave to you. He is more than a slave, for he is a beloved brother, especially to me. Now he will mean much more to you, both as a man and as a brother in the Lord.

17 So if you consider me your partner, welcome him as you would welcome me.

18 If he has wronged you in any way or owes you anything, charge it to me.

19 I, PAUL, WRITE THIS WITH MY OWN HAND: I WILL REPAY IT. AND I WON’T MENTION THAT YOU OWE ME YOUR VERY SOUL !

20 Yes, my brother, please do me this favor for the Lord’s sake. Give me this encouragement in Christ.
