Studies in Philemon Michael Penny

Studies in Philemon: Historically; Theologically; Practically Paul's little letter to his friend Philemon, concerning Philemon's runaway slave Onesimus, may, at first glance, have little to do with modern man in the twenty-first century. However, nothing could be further from the truth. - This publication first sets the scene historically, enabling the reader to more fully understand the background which caused Paul to write this letter.- Next the author gives a theological exposition of these twenty five verses, ensuring the reader understands what Paul has written.- Lastly, this letter is reviewed with present-day applications in mine and six important lessons are drawn from its pages, lessons from which all Christians can benefit and learn.
