'Behalf' in the Bible

You learned about this gospel from Epaphras, our dear fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of the Messiah on your behalf.

Now I am rejoicing while suffering for you as I complete in my flesh whatever remains of the Messiah's sufferings on behalf of his body, which is the church.

For I can testify on his behalf that he has a deep concern for you and for those in Laodicea and in Hierapolis.
