This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
For God ... whom I serve - the word denotes religious service.
with my spirit - from my inmost soul.
in the gospel of his Son - to which Paul’s whole religious life and official activity were consecrated.
is my witness, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers - so for the Ephesians (Eph 1:15, Eph 1:16); so for the Philippians (Phi 1:3, Phi 1:4); so for the Colossians (Col 1:3, Col 1:4); so for the Thessalonians (1Th 1:2, 1Th 1:3). What catholic love, what all-absorbing spirituality, what impassioned devotion to the glory of Christ among men!
