Philemon 1:18

Context
1:18 Now if he has defrauded you of anything or owes you anything, charge what he owes 1  to me.

Philemon 1:20

Context
1:20 Yes, brother, let me have some benefit from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Christ. 2 

1 tn Grk “charge it to me.”

2 sn Refresh my heart in Christ. Paul desired that Philemon refresh his heart in the same way that he [Philemon] had refreshed the hearts of other believers (cf. Phlm 7), that is, by forgiving and accepting Onesimus. In this way the presence and character of Jesus Christ would be vividly seen in Philemon’s attitude toward his runaway slave.
