Episode Synopsis


When we read Philemon, we can be confused by the relationship between a “bondservant,” or in some translations, a “slave” and his master. A contextual understanding of this working relationship might change how we think about the individuals mentioned. However, slavery isn’t actually the primary thrust of the passage. In this episode, Emma Dotter is joined by Elizabeth Hoffman, Watermark’s Cultural Engagement Coordinator, to talk Philemon’s big ideas.
