Thank you to all of our generous supporters!
You’re research, understanding and articulation of the books of the Bible is profound. Your artistic style makes it extremely easy for visual learners to retain the narrative. Excellent work!
Amen
Both God and Jesus were clear that slavery was okay! Who was Paul to change things?
Thank You! Awesome
As a Protestant Christian, notice the Bible Project has no intention of producing videos covering the Deuterocanonical CATHOLIC books for a reason..
God bless you all!
You guys are awesome. Thank you for this masterpiece. God bless y'all!
What has Onesimus learned about being responsible?
I have really enjoyed this.
I barely read that chapter and I didn't see ANY of that. I have to pray before I read the bible I guess…
It’s 2020 my bible was open to THIS this morning. WOW does it speak to what is going on today.
the video is over exaggerated
Some one explain this to me … Paul who is in jail has a slave ??? Attention OBAMA? Freeing a slave while you are in fact a slave ?
Is this your own guys translation of the Bible?
Tyvm
Fantastic series.loving it
Makes so much sense. Bless y'all for using your Gift this well
Please only design this type of videos.. Whiteboard videos help us to understand better…. God bless you and team.
Truly amazing, brilliantly inspiring, well done.
AMAZING! God bless you!
Thank you so much for this….
Thank you for the fantastic videos!
You miss the understanding that Paul wished Onesimus stay with him instead, but knew Onesimus would be beneficial to Philemon. Paul seemingly coveted Onesimus's understanding of faith in chains.
And somehow this very important message has been set aside in many churches today.
God bless you brothers, thank you for these wonderful videos.
Can there be a connection here between the treatment of slaves in the OT regarding the difference between an Israelite slave and a gentile slave?
Excelent perfect
I read this letter so many times yet I never so ot as more than "nice words" that Paul wrote to someone.
Looking deeper into what is written can really shed more light on the biblical stories.
Suppose we view this from the Law's perspective. We have 1. Hebrew Slave, 2. a kinsman, & 3. the stranger who sojourns with us. The Hebrew slave is a Christian but not a kinsman. The kinsman is a Christian, but is viewed as a family member, & a stranger is neither a brother nor a Christian, and should not receive the rights a non-kinsman Christian slave would. A kinsman would be treated as a family member who fell on hard times. See Exodus 21:2-11, 20-21; Deuteronomy 15:12-18; Leviticus 25:35-55.
It brings me much joy knowing that there are brothers like you using your gifts for the furtherance of His kingdom. Continue the good work!!!
I feel like if this story was presented to the Confederate South, The U.S. Civil War would have been a lot less violent.
That is beautiful ❤️
I truly appreciate your videos. It's sometimes difficult for me to focus and this really helps before I dive into a book.
Thanks a lot brothers ….. Jesus bless you
Philemon?
The masked dude from Persona, yes
i've heard about it
The more I learn about Paul, the more I like him.
I weep when I read this book. What love!
THIS IS NOTHING LIKE PERSONA 2
Jesus is King. Put your trust in Him, establish a personal relationship with Him, forsake your sins and seek His forgiveness. For His yoke is light and He provides peace even in the worst situations. This life will never satisfy you, material items cannot keep you happy, but Gods love will give you meaning.
God bless you and be safe.
Thank you
Excellent artwork and you are correct in saying that the length of the letter (or lack of it) is deceptive regarding its deep content. Two minor points: Philemon ( at least in the nominative) is pronounced, not like Feyeleemon but like Fillaymoan. The other is you did not mention Paul’s joke (verse 11) when he makes a play on words with Onesimus’ name.
GOD BLESS Y'ALL FOR THIS AMAZING WORK OF ART
