Philemon 1:5

The reason is that I constantly hear about
the love [that is selfless and generous]
and the faith
you have
in the Lord Jesus and
for all the saints [his love also included Onesimus]. [Epaphras had told Paul about the church in Col., see Col. 1:7. He had probably also mentioned Philem.'s faith in Jesus, which made him love everyone selflessly and generously. The verb form "heard" indicates that it was not just a single report about Philem. love and faith that Paul had heard, it was something that everyone talked about.
The verse is written as a chiasm. The pattern means that the word love is primarily associated with other believers and the word faith with belief in the Lord Jesus. Faith in Jesus is central and is the core of everything. At the same time, "love and faith" also belong together. Paul has faith and love for the Lord, but also for other believers. Already in the introduction to the letter, Paul shows that he has faith that the situation with Onesimus will be resolved in love.]
