Philippians 4:19 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

Ver. 19. But my God] Whom I serve as an ambassador in bonds, Ephesians 6:20, and therefore surely he will repay you the sums you have sent me.

Shall supply] Gr. πληρωσει, shall fill up, as he did the widow's vessels: Shut the doors upon thee, saith the prophet, 2 Kings 4:4. It was time to shut the doors, when one little vessel must overflow and fill up many greater.

According to his riches in glory] All God's supplies to his come tipped and gilt with a glory upon them, saith one. Providences below, graces within, heaven above; as they have a lovely scarlet blush of Christ's blood upon them; so they are rayed upon with a beam of divine love to them that are in Christ.
