Contextual Overview

1 Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother: To Philemon our dearly-loved fellow labourer-- 2 and to our sister Apphia and our comrade Archippus--as well as to the Church in your house. 3 May grace be granted to you all, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 4 I give continual thanks to my God while making mention of you, my brother, in my prayers, 5 because I hear of your love and of the faith which you have towards the Lord Jesus and which you manifest towards all God's people; 6 praying as I do, that their participation in your faith may result in others fully recognizing all the right affection that is in us toward Christ. 7 For I have found great joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of God's people have been, and are, refreshed through you, my brother.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Grace to you and peace, from God,.... Which is the same form of salutation used in the other epistles; :- for though this epistle is but a very small one, yet it is introduced in the same form as the larger epistles are; and has an inscription in the former verse, a salutation in this, and a preface in the three following.
