Who this is

The name here is a misspelling of Onesiphorus in the source data; the person intended is Onesiphorus, a believer from Ephesus who sought Paul out and ministered to him during Paul's Roman imprisonment, unashamed of his chains (2 Timothy 1:16-18). Paul later sends greetings to Onesiphorus's household and recalls his service at Ephesus (2 Timothy 4:19).
