Category:Philemon (text)
The Letter of Paul to Philemon (see Online Text) is a New Testament document.
Overview
In accordance to Roman Law, Paul is sending him back his slave Onesimus who ran away.
Slavery was a very hard condition, but Paul does not question the legitimacy of slavery (see also 1 Peter 2:18-25). He does not ask him to free all his slaves or his Christian slaves, but is asking Philemon to welcome the slave as a brother in Christ. They are both Christians.
“There is no longer Jew or Greek, there is no longer slave or free, there is no longer male and female; for all of you are one in Christ Jesus” (Gal 3:28)
1 Peter: “Fear God. Honor the Emperor… Slaves, accept the authority of your masters…” (chap. 2) “Wives, in the same way, accept the authority of hour husbands,” while however inviting husbands to “show consideration” (3:1-7).
Colossians: “Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything… Masters treat your slaves justly and fairly…” (Col 3:33-4:1; Eph 6:5-9).
