Summary: Though written from prison, Philippians has been called "the epistle of joy." Those who study and apply its teachings will see why. Paul's most personal and affectionate letter, it is deeply moving and rich with the gospel. This commentary helps readers enter into the heart of Paul and emerge transformed. Join John MacArthur as he explains each verse in a way that is both doctrinally precise and intensely practical. Taking into account the cultural, theological, and Old Testament contexts of each passage, MacArthur tackles interpretive challenges and fair.--Reformers Bookshop.
