Philemon was a convert of [[Paul]] who is the only known personal recipient of a letter from him. A slave of Philemon named [[Onesimus]] had escaped and fled to [[Paul]].
Paul converted the slave and then learned that he had robbed and fled from Philemon. Paul persuaded [[Onesimus]] to return to Philemon and beg for forgiveness with a letter from Paul urging the master to show leniency.
Philemon responded by forgiving the slave and even setting him free as a Christian brother.
