“But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me.”
King James Version (KJV)
1:15 All who are in Asia - Who had attended me at Rome for a while. Are turned away from me - What, from Paul the aged, the faithful soldier, and now prisoner of Christ! This was a glorious trial, and wisely reserved for that time, when he was on the borders of immortality. Perhaps a little measure of the same spirit might remain with him under whose picture are those affecting words, The true effigy of Francis Xavier, apostle of the Indies, forsaken of all men, dying in a cottage.
1:16 The family of Onesiphorus - As well as himself. Hath often refreshed me - Both at Ephesus and Rome.
2Ti 1:17 He sought me out very diligently, and found [me]. Not only was not ashamed, but sought him at great pains and found him.
