Philemon Th e apostle in this epistle indulges in some fine paronomasais on the proper names. Thus Philemon, Φιλημον G5371, affectionate, or beloved, is "our dearly beloved;" Apphia (Απφια G682, from απφα), the affectionate address of a brother or sister, according to Suidas), is "the beloved sister," as several manuscripts, Vulgate, and others correctly read; Archippus (Αρχιππος G751, the ruler of the horse, for the managing of which heros were anciently famous), is "our fellow- soldier;" and Onesimus (Ονησιμος G3682, useful or profitable), once unprofitable, is now profitable., and fellow labourer, Phlm 1:24; 1Cor 3:9; Phil 2:25, Phil 4:3; Col 4:11; 1Thess 3:2
