The Book of Philippians is a letter written by the Apostle Paul to the church in Philippi while he was imprisoned, most likely in Rome. Despite his chains, the epistle is filled with joy, thanksgiving, and encouragement. Paul expresses his love for the Philippians, who had supported him both spiritually and financially. This letter emphasizes the themes of rejoicing in the Lord, unity in the faith, humility through the example of Christ, and faithful service in the midst of trials. Philippians is unique among Paul’s epistles in that it does not focus on correcting doctrinal error but rather on promoting steadfastness and spiritual maturity in the faith.
