Philemon 21-23
New English Translation

21 Since I was confident that you would obey, I wrote to you, because I knew that you would do even more than[a] what I am asking you to do. 22 At the same time also, prepare a place for me to stay, for I hope that through your prayers I will be given back to you.

Footnotes

  1. Philemon 1:21 tn Grk “that you would even go beyond.”
  2. Philemon 1:23 sn Epaphras is probably a shortened form of the name Epaphroditus. This is probably the same individual whom Paul spoke of as “my brother, coworker, and fellow soldier” in Phil 2:25 (see also Phil 4:18). He is also mentioned in Col 1:7 and 4:12, where he is a founder of the church in Colossae (BDAG 360 s.v. ᾿Επαφρᾶς).
