b:

2 Corinthians 7:16 I rejoice therefore that I have confidence in you in all things.

Poole

I have not written this without a confidence that thou in this thing wilt do what I desire of thee, but I write it out of my affection to poor Onesimus, and desire to help him, not doubting of thy readiness to do the thing.
