- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 มิ.ย. 2024
- Watch our overview video on the book of Philemon, which breaks down the literary design of the book and its flow of thought. In this letter, Paul helps his friend Philemon to reconcile with his escaped former slave Onesimus and shows that they are equals because of Jesus.

I don't understand one of your conclusions. In Colossians Paul still maintains the structural relationship between masters and slaves (he doesn't call for it to be abolished) but does command them to relate to one another differently as far as their disposition and attitudes. Why do you say his letter to Philemon is calling for the abolition of his status as a slave? Isn't the point in this letter and in Colossians that no matter your status in life we still have a responsibility to God? Is there any evidence that Philemon understood Pauls letter to be an appeal to free his slaves? If everyone acts like a Christian in whatever structure is in society doesn't that solve the problem anyway?
Jesus lead me here. I had never read Philemon before or even really heard it preached on. I am currently cultivating discipline through Christ Jesus to read my bible daily and wanted to start with chapters I hadn't read. Decided to watch a video to see what it was about before reading and now I am sitting here laughing at just how wonderful and glorious our Lord is in His gracious convictions. En route to forgiving someone now lol, will still read this book tonight. Thank you for the video!
Amen friend 🙏
Brother I read it as well and yeah I felt the exact same way!!!!!
Same here but I want a friend like Paul that I can charge their debt too😅😅😅
The Savior is your friend who takes all our debt.
Beautiful testimony, thanks for sharing.
I was awakened by a very bad dream this morning and found myself drowsily running my fingers in the pages of my Bible and then I saw this chapter. After reading the whole text, I knew that it meant something important more than what I just read. Now this video really helped me, and the message that it has is very relevant to my current situation. I feel blessed for I know that what just happened is the work God's Holy Spirit. May the grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
Thank your for reading my testimony, also sorry for my bad grammar.
Hoenheimm 29 wow
That's awesome! Amen Brother and thanks for sharing
Blessed you are, brother.
Look into C.G Jungs red book
Great 😊 Jesus loves you
Hallelujah Amen !!.
I am a korean and christian.
I am studying and sharing and preaching the Word
through the openbibleTV in TH-cam.
Wow I never heard nor seen this letter broken down like this. Thank you for taking the time to study and present what God has given you. God bless you all!
My grandpa went to be with the Lord recently, it’s been a few weeks. Today the Lord lead me to this book. My grandpa’s name is Filemón (Philemon in Spanish). What a beautiful book. Holy Spirit gave me a revelation about the scripture that says “it seems you lost Onesimus for a little while so you have have him forever”. Gives me encouragement that I will see my grandpa again. 🤍 I love you Grandpa Filemón De La Torre 🤍 I will see you again.
No matter how young or old someone is and what kind of sin(s) they have committed, as long as they still draw, never too late to become a born again believer.
@@bighand1530 Well said.❤
❤️❤️
Amen! God bless you my sister in Christ!
I’m making adjustments in life so that I can use an RV to travel the several thousand miles to park near each of my kids’ homes so I’m available to my grandkids and hopefully establish a loving relationship with each of them. I hope when I pass, they will have the same kind of love for me as you speak of for your Grandpa.
I REALLY appreciate what y'all are doing. Keep it up !🙋🏿
*SSJGod*
!!!!!? 👍👍👍👍👍😎😎😎
This is good stuff!
Thank you once again for helping us study the Bible!
Hello Sir
@@whereareyou6296 Hi
I love this, I read Philemon 3 times in the last week praying for revelation and understanding, and I did not pick up on ANY of this lol. I’m glad to have this TH-cam channel as a resource
God led you to this channel... Your prayers were answered.
Whenever he said that Koinonia meant sharing, it blew my mind. I was acting in a Christian musical called Camp Koinonia several years ago and I thought it was a made up word. It perfectly matches the theme of the story we acted out in the play. So cool!
That's so dope!
Kpinonia is a very interesting word. It can imply a common effort. It can be translated as a union, and is even used in both pagan and Christian literature to describe the intimate union that is marriage. We share koinonia in the Church because we are intimately united as members of the Body of Christ whose head is Christ. And the Church, of which we are members, is the Bride of Christ.
@@maryanneiler5810 oooh, I like that!
Where did you work, sir?
The Bible Project has been such a blessing to me; thanks for these videos!!!
I read this letter so many times yet I never saw it as more than "nice words" that Paul wrote to someone.
Looking deeper into what is written can really shed more light on the biblical stories.
This is totally excellent! Great talent and great explanation. Thanks! Keep doing what you do for Jesus.
Willy Bernardus yes !
These series are precious tools for studying Bible. Thank you ,brothers. It is very important what you do. May God Bless you!
I have stop watching these videos at work, i can never hold back the tears. 😭
Find a job as an onion cutter and you can continue to watch without people noticing the tears!
Blessings and peace
@@georgealderson4424 haha that was funny!😂
@@theophiljed Glad you enjoyed my little joke TJ. Also glad it is not just me who has watery eyes when I watch these videos so I am not alone after all! Blessings and peace
@@georgealderson4424 😂😂😂!! Yesss
You watch these videos at work is very important if people see how deeply they affect you emotionally and spiritually it will be amazing (though if you would rather not cry at work I understand lol)
This channel never ceases to amaze me
Yes and please share them to whoever will listen
I appreciate the Bible Project for creating such compelling videos with animation. A friend of mine who is an atheist finds these videos quite fascinating when I share them with him. We engage in quite a few conversations concerning Christian Theology and the biblical texts. He takes more of a pragmatic and historical approach while I take more of a theological and philosophical approach to the text. We are both literalist in our interpretation of the text.
I literally just learned how to pronounce it. I thought it was phil-eh-mon
I could manage Philemon OK but when it came to Onesimus...don't even go there haha
I pronounce it with an "e" Pheel-eh-mon
Ditto 🤗
LOL SAME
I think it just depends on your first language or accent. In Greek it was probably probably pronounced Phee-Leh-Mon
This is amazing. The artwork and drawings must've taken a long time. I really appreciate this because I am a visual learner and doesn't like to read. This is really intuitive and encourages me to dive into scriptures more deeply. Thank you!
There are apps for cartoon drawings with writing just like this, though they may have made their own.
We can't wait to study this in our small group later this week. Thank you for beautiful outline of what appears to be a simple letter but is truly the Gospel in action!
Thank you guys so much for these videos! They really help add a lot of insight into the letters we read in the Bible.

What is ur opinion of the book of enoch
Please sottotitoli in italiano?
Sottotitoli per il video in italiano... Thank you very much
ISAIAH 57 - PHILEMON
“I have seen his ways, and will heal him; I will also lead him, and restore comforts to him and to his mourners.” (Isaiah 57:18)
WORDS BY: JESUS
"Philemon is a book about healing but healing of a different kind. It focuses on healing a soul rather than the physical. The heart of man is a lot harder to heal than the bondage on the body which is why it is important to understand the causes of spiritual sickness and the freedom found in true repentance. Bitterness, unforgiveness and hurts are spiritual cancers not only brining death to your body naturally, but cause major blockages in your spiritual growth, making you unable to progress. Such sicknesses pass from generations to generations and can last up to decades in a single person’s life. Many go to the grave like this without resolve. How do you heal from a lifetime of deep wounds? The cross. The cross was meant for such wounds as this, for every lash I received was a lash meant for your freedom. Freedom is found on your behalf, not the other person’s. You seek and you make the steps to do what it takes to make sure your heart is clean towards Onesimus. When you are faithful to this, you will be amazed at what your repentance can do in another’s life and the freedom it can bring them.
Every time you hold grudges towards your brethren, you are enslaving them as Onesimus was a slave. But I want more for you. I want to restore comforts to you and your mourners. I no longer want to see brethren treating brethren as slaves to their sin. I am the God of healing and I want to heal broken relationships where you can receive even your enemies as beloved brethren. With a heart that is willing to let go and release, I can restore your body and soul from a lifetime of deep wounds; because when Isaiah prophesied by My stripes you are healed, you are healed indeed!"
Koinonia also means "community" and "communion". Great video, thanks!
I just want to thank @The Bible Project - I'd been struggling to understand the relevance of Philemon for a long time. Your video explained the relevance and allegorical nature of the book and opened my eyes to why it was included. Thank you for the amazing work you guys do!
Thank you so much for your summaries of the books of the Bible. They are just AWESOME.
So so so so thankful for these videos! I've started watching them before I read each book/chapter and it has deepened my Bible study more than anything else I've tried 😊
WOW
can't stop watching your videos.
They are amazing, and this massage from Paul is outstanding.
Thank you for doing such great work.
Peace from Israel
Thank you so much for the passion, brilliance, hard work, and beauty you bring to this videos. xo
This was simply amazing! You guys do such great work! If only churches would teach this right now, we could’ve had hearts ready to receive healing in the Spirit for America! 🙏🏾🙏🏼❤️
This is excellent! God bless this work. This makes things so clear, thank you for your videos. Best regards from Brazil
You’re research, understanding and articulation of the books of the Bible is profound. Your artistic style makes it extremely easy for visual learners to retain the narrative. Excellent work!
Thank you for clearly explaining scripture.
It brings me much joy knowing that there are brothers like you using your gifts for the furtherance of His kingdom. Continue the good work!!!
you guys are blessed and doing amazing work for the extension of HIS kingdom.
Thanks to your videos I understand each book of the Bible deeper! I never thought this is what the Book of Philemon is all about! God bless you more!!!
This is SO good. Many times we read (or half read) scripture and accept that it is intended to teach us something. So we pick out the parts we understand (perhaps!) and with which we are comfortable. Then we disregard the rest and the fact that it is intended for humans and describes human conditions which are familiar to us.
In this case we have actual characters to consider so we are able to see the teaching in action and may be able to apply it to our own lives in 21st century.
Thank you
Blessings and peace to the videoe makers and to all who watch it
Holy Spirit used this to speak powerfully to me about myself today. Thank you for this indepth view into a part of the Bible I have overlooked for years! God bless you all at The Bible Project! 🙏❤
It’s 2020 my bible was open to THIS this morning. WOW does it speak to what is going on today.
Thank you guys so much for all you do!! I was struggling to understand why the letter to Philemon was included in scripture, now I know and it makes total sense.
I was struggling also. One of the shortest letters but difficult to follow at first. At least for me. I just finished reading it for the second time this week. Now i've watched the video to get some context. Now I will go back and read it again😊
this is now acc one of my favourite letters!!! . love it more now that I understand the meaning behind the letter. 😍❤️🙏🏾
This is the shortest book yet has one of the most deepest meaning.
Thank you for being a salt and light in this world through your gifts! May God bless you more! ❤

Beautiful animations and explanations. It is a blessed message!
This was beautiful. I'm starting to dig this 'Paul' guy. He was a lot smarter than I remember. Thanks again.
Thank you for the indepth illustrative presentation which has left an indelible mark about this small island of Crete and the lessons that emanate from this letter of Paul
I've been a Jonah for years without realizing it but I absolutely love this story about forgiveness. Thank you for doing it video!
Thank you guys! These videos are Awesome, im dyslexic and they really help me understand the bible better. God Bless The Bible Project!!
Wonderful summary of the book of Philemon and the visual really makes it stick! All I can imagine is stilling my children Biblical bed time stories and listening to their questions and seeing their reaction.

😊
Your animations are simply too perfect. Please don't stop the good work.
I truly appreciate your videos. It's sometimes difficult for me to focus and this really helps before I dive into a book.
Hello there, I've seen a couple of these videos and I find them so refreshing. It's a different approach altogether, and I really appreciate the efforts invested to share the gospel visually in a simplified manner.
You're doing a wonderful job, keep it up!!
May our heavenly Father BLESS you as this BLESSED me . Thank you very much !
I love these summaries. I wish you created a book with these pictures with a write up. I would buy it in a heartbeat.
There is :)

Seeing the Book of Philemon in a different light!
Wow!!!!!!
OMG!! The drawing of Paul holding their hands with the cross at the back! Loved it! We must do the same ♡♡♡
Great explanation of the flow of events and manipulation by word useage to reach end goal.
Could you please continue to list specific Greek terms, like make it a running thread?
***** Fantastic!

Brilliant analysis. Thanks and God bless you all.
Wow! Thank you for using your, extraordinary, gift to share the Word!

Literally in my top ten favorite bible books list
It definitely made it into my top 66.
The Beat Fabrik eeeeeeeeeeeeyyyy! L L

I really like the simplicity of your summaries of each book of the Bible .
Excellent as always! Thanks guys

i love ur videos and they help me so much. I thank god that you make these videos
Your videos are very helpful. Thank you
Superb. Thank you. Your resources, wisdom and insights have been a real blessing for me through my Ordination training. Thank you
Thanks 🙏. It’s a really good teaching technique/ experience for my. Very appreciated.
This is amazing.... May God bless you abundantly......
Hey great work man, really good and interesting, also love the voice crack at 3:10
I love how they zoom out at the end so you can screenshot its really useful
I did not know all these things about this chapter- this is cool!!
Awesome bible proyect! All the time
Truly amazing, brilliantly inspiring, well done.
And somehow this very important message has been set aside in many churches today.
God bless you brothers, thank you for these wonderful videos.
I had a friend asking about the Bible’s relationship to slavery just yesterday and this video autoplayed off of the Titus overview (which also talks about bondservants)! God always has timely answers for us.
Great work, I really appreciate these videos! Philemon seems to be the most clear cut example of Biblical parallels to American judicial philosophy (of course I mean the U.S. Constitutional structure and procedure, not the current authoritarian administrate technique).
This is by far the best teaching system to teach the Bible. Actually the gentlemen is using the system of Memory Palace using lineal logic. So if you use this system and Memory Palace together you will become a Prolific Student of the Bible. Hopefully you will pass from student to teacher. Student learns from teacher. A disciple passes from student to teacher. Go ye into all the world and teach the gospel. Making disciples not students. Excellent teaching brother.
