Commentaries:
Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown
the Lord's freeman— (Philemon 1:16) —rather, "freedman." Though a slave externally, spiritually made free by the Lord: from sin, John 8:36; from the law, Romans 8:2; from "circumcision," I Corinthians 7:19; Galatians 5:1.
Christ's servant— (I Corinthians 9:21). Love makes Christ's service perfect freedom (Matthew 11:29-30; Galatians 5:13; I Peter 2:16).
