Description
The apostle Paul's letter to the Christian community at Philippi, his first congregation on European soil, contains some of his most evocative and powerful images. Yet it was written under prison conditions. Dealing with both external and Church conflicts with determined cheerfulness, the letter examines issues that remain contemporary. Paul thereby illuminates both the Christian ethic and the underlying story of divine grace and the wonder of incarnation. One of a series, this commentary is based on the author's own translation of the epistle and does not require its readers to know Greek. It also takes account of the scholarly work stimulated by recent archaeological discoveries at the ancient site of Philippi.
