Paul asks that YHvH would have granted that Onesiphorus been given mercy on the day, when he, Onesiphorus, searched for Paul in Rome.

So, Saint Paul is praying about something that has already happened and no longer bears any significance?

Isn't YOPIOS a magnificent invention, it allows the "interpreter" to dismiss everything they don't like as insignificant.

As Peter notes, Paul is sometime hard to understand.

Which is why I really on two thousand years of Church teaching and ignore the seemingly endless new conclusions that are reached by those employing the 16th century man-made invention of YOPIOS.

I use the First Century for interpretation.

I consider nothing after the book of Revelation.
