The Apostle Paul
Philippians 4:19WEB·traditional attribution

My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Albert Barnes Presbyterian

You gave to me in my distress, and God will repay you in kind; nothing is lost by doing good, even in this life. God's riches are infinite and His supply glorious because it comes through Christ Jesus, the only channel through which we receive anything from God.

AI summary

John Calvin Reformed

Paul calls God his own because He owns whatever kindness is shown to His servants; the Philippians sowed in the Lord's field and will reap a sure harvest. God promises to furnish them magnificently with every necessity of this life through Christ, in whose name alone their works find acceptance.

AI summary

Matthew Henry Presbyterian

Paul had a grateful spirit, and though the Philippians owed him their very souls, he speaks of their gift as if it were generous charity rather than a just debt. What they sent was small, yet he records it for all ages to read; their kindness shall be a memorial wherever this epistle goes. They alone helped him when he left Macedonia, when no other church did so.
