Philippians: A New Testament Commentary

by Bob Yandian

Overview

In his New Testament Commentary on Philippians, Bob Yandian teaches verse-by-verse from his personal study notes. The topic of the book is God's joy, which is the strength of our Christian life. Paul had a vision in which a man instructed him to go to Macedonia. The man in Paul's vision came from Philippi, a Roman colony. In this epistle, Paul expresses his thanks and appreciation to those people in Philippi who stood by him with their prayers and financial support. These personal study notes will give you great insight into the church at Philippi and the joy of the Lord.
