Commentary on Philippians 4:16

Theological / Devotional

Even in Thessalonica. Paul now recalls that the Philippians had helped him even before he was forced to flee from Macedonia. Their help began to flow shortly after he left Philippi, while he was still in the next city of Thessalonica.

Once and again. Literally, “both once and twice.” Their generosity was not fleeting, for they continued to send help to their beloved apostle.

Unto my necessity. Or, “with reference to my need.”
