Philemon 1
1.Paul rejoices to hear of the faith and love of Philemon,
8.whom he desires to forgive his servant Onesimus, and lovingly to receive him again.














I, Paul, write this with my own hand.
Paul's personal touch in writing this letter is significant. In the ancient world, letters were often dictated to a scribe, but Paul emphasizes his personal involvement by writing this part himself. This act underscores the importance and sincerity of his message. It also reflects the personal relationship he has with Philemon, highlighting the gravity of the request he is making. This personal touch is seen in other letters, such asGalatians 6:11, where Paul mentions writing with large letters, possibly due to poor eyesight or to emphasize his point.

I will repay it—
Paul is referring to any financial or material debt that Onesimus, the runaway slave, might owe Philemon. By offering to repay, Paul is taking on the role of a mediator, reflecting the sacrificial nature of Christ, who paid the debt of sin for humanity. This act of assuming another's debt is a practical demonstration of Christian love and forgiveness. It also echoes the principle found inProverbs 22:26-27 about not being a guarantor for another's debt, yet Paul willingly takes this risk for the sake of reconciliation.

not to mention that you owe me your very self.
Here, Paul gently reminds Philemon of the spiritual debt he owes to Paul, likely because Paul was instrumental in Philemon's conversion to Christianity. This reminder serves to strengthen Paul's appeal for Onesimus, as Philemon's spiritual life and eternal destiny were profoundly impacted by Paul's ministry. This phrase highlights the interconnectedness of the early Christian community and the deep bonds formed through shared faith. It also reflects the broader biblical theme of spiritual indebtedness, as seen in1 Corinthians 4:15, where Paul refers to himself as a spiritual father to the Corinthians.

What Does Philemon 1:19 Mean
I, Paul, write this with my own hand

• Paul pauses his dictation to pick up the pen himself, underscoring the seriousness of his pledge.Galatians 6:11 shows a similar moment—“See what large letters I use as I write to you with my own hand”—demonstrating that personal handwriting served as an unmistakable signature of authenticity (cf.2 Thessalonians 3:17).

• By writing personally, Paul adds warmth and accountability, assuring Philemon that the following promise is neither casual nor symbolic.

• This personal touch also affirms the integrity of Scripture; the inspired apostle knowingly anchors the epistle to his own authority (1 Corinthians 14:37).

I will repay it

• Paul pledges to settle any financial loss Philemon sustained when Onesimus ran away, reflecting the principle of restitution (Luke 19:8;Exodus 22:1).

• His offer removes every practical excuse for unforgiveness. With the debt covered, Philemon can extend grace freely, echoing how Christ paid our debt so we could be reconciled to God (Colossians 2:13-14).

• Paul models sacrificial love: bearing another’s burden at personal cost (Galatians 6:2).

not to mention that you owe me your very self

• Paul gently reminds Philemon that, humanly speaking, his very salvation came through Paul’s ministry (1 Corinthians 4:15). This spiritual debt far outweighs any material loss.

• The phrase is not manipulation but perspective: if Philemon has benefited infinitely from Paul’s gospel labors, how can he withhold lesser mercy from Onesimus (Matthew 18:21-35)?

• The reminder invites gratitude-driven obedience: “Freely you have received; freely give” (Matthew 10:8).

summary

Paul’s handwritten guarantee eliminates every stumbling block to reconciliation. By pledging restitution, he clears the ledger, then lovingly points Philemon to the far greater spiritual debt already paid in Christ. The verse calls believers to move beyond mere words, absorbing personal costs so that others can taste the same forgiveness and freedom we have received.

(19)I Paul have written it with mine own hand.--St. Paul actually introduces here a regular bond couched in legal form, written (as, perhaps, the whole Letter was written) with his own hand. In so doing he still continues the idea of the preceding verse; but the following words show that, though willing to stand to his bond, he knew Philemon too well to suppose that he would accept it.

It is clear from this passage that the Apostle had money which he could rightly call his own. At Ephesus, where he probably first knew Philemon, it would probably be earned in the work with Aquila and Priscilla, as at Corinth, and it is possible that some of it might still remain. In Rome now, it could hardly be from any other source than the offerings from the Church at Philippi. They were given him freely; he might fairly spend them on his own "son in the faith."

Albeit I do not say to thee . . .--Literally,not to say to thee. Here St. Paul escapes from the business-like promise of the last verse to the freer Atmosphere of spiritual relations. He knew that this promise it was right for him to offer, but wrong for Philemon to accept. Philemon owed his own self--his new self in Christ--to the Apostle. In that was a debt which he could not repay, but would rejoice even in this smaller matter to acknowledge.

Verse 19. -I Paul have written- write it (Revised Version) -with my own hand, I will repay it. Thus St. Paul took upon himself legally the repayment of the debt. "Prioribus verbis proprie cautio [a bail or security] continetur: his autem constituti obligatio. Hoc Latine dicitur pecuniam constituere: de quo titulus est in DigestisἈναδέχεσθαι dicunt Graeci" (Scipio Gentilis).Albeit I do not say to thee, etc.; "though I do not remind thee [while so saying] that thou owest even thyself to me!" Philemon owed to the apostle that debt of which the obligation outweighed every other - the help by which he had been led out of spiritual darkness and brought to the knowledge of the truth. St. Paul was (as we must conclude from this allusion) the "spiritual father" of Philemon - a phrase he himself uses in1 Corinthians 4:15.
