Bible Gateway has launched a new blog series with content from biblical scholar Scot McKnight, focusing on his insights and wisdom on the book of Philippians. Each week for the next 12 weeks we will publish a chapter from his Bible study book. For this week, here is Scot's introduction to the letter of Philippians: |
Philippians is one of the favorite letters of Paul for many Christians, not least because of its crisp ideas and special terms like joy and fellowship (a common life with others) and unity. Then too it has some of our favorite passages, like the poem of Philippians 2:6–11, and favorite verses, not least 4:13's "I can do all this through him who gives me strength." That Paul was in a tough situation, in prison in probably Rome, causes many to turn to this short letter for wisdom and comfort. He tells the Thessalonians that he "was treated outrageously in Philippi" itself (1 Thessalonians 2:2). |
