Philemon 1:15-17
Philemon 1: 15 to 17
15 Perhaps this is why he was away from [12] you for a while, that you might have him back forever,
16 no longer as a slave but more than a slave, a brother, beloved especially to me, but even more so to you, as a man [13] and in the Lord. [AK]
17 So if you regard me as a partner, welcome him as you would me.
