Philippians 4:4-27 NIV

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Philippians 4:10-23

(10) ¶ But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity. (11) Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. (12) I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: everywhere and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. (13) I can do all things through Christ which... read more

Hath flourished again. Literally, that you have flourished again, to think or care for me, which appears by your sending me a supply of money.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Philippians 4:2-9

2-9 Let believers be of one mind, and ready to help each other.
