Php 1:27; Php 1:30.-ὑμῶν δὲ ἀπόστολον, and your deputy or messenger) The Philippians had deputed him as a messenger to Paul [Php 4:18].-λειτουργὸν τῆς χρείας μου, the minister to my necessity) To this also refer your [viz. your minister, the one sent by you to minister to my necessity]; for he had been serviceable to Paul in the name of the Philippians. Also see how highly even external ministration is estimated: Php 2:30.-πέμψαι, to send) He says, to send, not to send back; for he had come to Paul for the purpose of remaining with him: Php 2:30.
