Gal. 4:19• 19My children, with whom I again travail, until Christ shall have been formed in you, (Gal. 4:19)
• That the very same power which had slain the enmity between Paul, a Jew, and Philemon, a Gentile, "making them one new man making peace," the very same power by which they were engaged in the same work, would be sufficient to make peace between Philemon and his slave Onesimus. (“Philemon” by J.L. Harris)
• If Philemon loved Paul, he would love his child; and Onesimus was his child, as he says. He names him at least as emphatically his child as either Titus or Timothy; but more than this, he was a son born as neither. Timothy nor Titus was—begotten in his bonds—bonds destined in the grace of God to be more fruitful for the instruction of saints than his most free service and world-wide labors. (“Philemon” by W. Kelly)
