Paul urges masters to treat servants justly, and calls all to “continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving,” praying also for open doors for his own witness. He exhorts them to “walk in wisdom toward outsiders” and to let their speech “be gracious, seasoned with salt.” He then sends personal news through Tychicus and Onesimus, greetings from his companions (including Epaphras, “always struggling on your behalf in his prayers,” and Luke “the beloved physician”) asks that the letter be shared with Laodicea, and closes in his own hand: “Remember my chains. Grace be with you.”
