Philippians 1:24

1:24 but it is more vital for your sake that I remain ³  in the body. ⁴

3:4 – though mine too are significant. ⁵  If someone thinks he has good reasons to put confidence in human credentials, ⁶  I have more:

Philippians 2:25

2:25 But for now ⁷  I have considered it necessary to send Epaphroditus to you. For he is my brother, ⁸  coworker and fellow soldier, and your messenger ⁹  and minister ¹⁰  to me in my need. ¹¹

¹ tn Grk “having,” most likely as an instrumental participle. Thus their present struggle is evidence that they have received the gift of suffering.

² tn Grk “that you saw in me and now hear [to be] in me.”

³ tn Grk “But to remain in the flesh is more necessary for you.”

⁴ tn Grk “the flesh.”

⁵ tn Grk “though I have reason for confidence even in the flesh.”

⁶ tn Grk “flesh.”

⁷ tn Grk “But.” The temporal notion (“for now”) is implied in the epistolary aorist (“I have considered”), for Epaphroditus was dispatched with this letter to the Philippians.

⁸ tn Grk “my brother” instead of “For he is my brother.” Verse 25 constitutes one sentence in Greek, with “my brother…” functioning appositionally to “Epaphroditus.”

⁹ tn Grk “apostle.”

¹⁰ tn The Greek word translated “minister” here is λειτουργός (leitourgo").

¹¹ tn Grk “servant of my need.”

⁹ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:12.

¹⁰ tn Grk “But this one thing (I do).”
