But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.
But. Though 'the gift' is not what I 'seek after' (Philippians 4:17), yet I am grateful for it, as ample for all my needs. х Apechoo (G568)] 'I have all' that I want, 'and more than enough;' literally, 'I abound.'
I am full, х pepleeroomai (G4137)] - 'I am filled full.'
An odour of a sweet smell (note, Ephesians 5:2). The figure is drawn from the sweet-smelling incense burnt with the sacrifices: their gift being in faith, was not so much to Paul as to God (Matthew 25:40), before whom it came up "for a memorial" (Acts 10:4), sweet-smelling in God's presence (Genesis 8:21; Revelation 8:3-4).
Sacrifice acceptable (Hebrews 13:16).
