Philemon 1:9 Yet for love's sake I rather beseech [thee]. Yet he does not come thus with commands, but as beseeching "for love's sake". Paul the aged. That his appeal may be more sure to touch Philemon, he reminds him that Paul is an old, gray-haired, scarred veteran of Christ, who has grown aged in his service, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ. And is now a prisoner suffering for his Lord.
