Description

A scholarly study, suitable for the Greekless student and the serious general reader, of St. Paul's most moving Epistle as a prime source at once of devotional and doctrinal inspiration. This commentary is preceded by an introduction which examines the authenticity and integrity of the Epistle, contemporary Philippi and its church, the character and construction of the letter, and its theology and 'spirituality'. A very full annotated bibliography is of especial value for a subject on which show more so much as been written in German and French as well as English. --Cover. show less
