In context

25 But I thought it necessary to send back to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, and fellow soldier, who is also your messenger and minister to my needs.

26 For he has been longing for all of you and is distressed because you heard he was ill.

27 He was sick indeed, nearly unto death. But God had mercy on him, and not only on him but also on me, to spare me sorrow upon sorrow.

28 Therefore I am all the more eager to send him, so that when you see him again you may rejoice, and I may be less anxious.

29 Welcome him in the Lord with great joy, and honor men like him,

30 because he nearly died for the work of Christ, risking his life to make up for your deficit of service to me.
