This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Php 1:26. Τὸ καύχημα ὑμῶν, your glorying [rejoicing]) concerning my restoration to you, who were praying for that very thing. It is correlative to the words, to my rejoicing [glorying over you], Php 2:16. Glory is joy, proceeding from virtue; glorying is the expression of joy, an affection full of joy: from virtue, either true or false; whence glorying is also true or false; comp. Isa 57:12, where righteousness is called, though it is falsely so called, righteousness.
