I, Paul, write this with my own hand: I will repay it (not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self besides).

EXPLANATION

Verse 19. I, Paul, have written, and testified this with my own hand. Some think he wrote the whole letter, with his own hand, to make it more acceptable to Philemon.—Not to say to thee, that thou owest me thy own self, the eternal salvation of thy soul, by thy conversion to the faith of Christ. Witham.
