NICNT: Philemon
Paul urges Philemon to challenge social barriers and establish new
realities of conduct and fellowship. His letter is nevertheless a disturbing
text that has been used to justify slavery. Though brief, the letter to
Philemon requires and rewards close scrutiny.
In this commentary Scot McKnight carefully analyzes the text of
Philemon and brings its entanglement with ancient Roman slavery into
conversation with modern slavery. Too often, McKnight says, studies of this
short letter gloss over the issue of slavery. Christians who want to read
Philemon faithfully must grapple with moral questions, personal and
institutional, that Paul himself does not raise. Pastors and scholars will find
in McKnight's commentary the insight they need to teach this
controversial short book in meaningful new ways.
