'Imprisonment' in the Bible

It is right for me to think this way about all of you, because I have you in my heart, and you are all partners with me in grace, both in my imprisonment and in the defense and establishment of the gospel.

Now I want you to know, believers, that what has happened to me [this imprisonment that was meant to stop me] has actually served to advance [the spread of] the good news [regarding salvation].

so that it has become known throughout the whole imperial guard, and to everyone else, that my imprisonment is in the cause of Christ.

Most of the brothers in the Lord have gained confidence from my imprisonment and dare even more to speak the message fearlessly.

the others proclaim Christ out of rivalry, not sincerely, seeking to cause me anxiety in my imprisonment.
