The Epistle to the Philippians (The New International Greek Testament Commentary Series | NIGTC)

This commentary series is established on the presupposition that the
theological character of the New Testament documents calls for exegesis
that is sensitive to theological themes as well as to the details of the
historical, linguistic, and textual context. Such thorough exegetical
work lies at the heart of these volumes, which contain detailed
verse-by-verse commentary preceded by general comments on each section
and subsection of the text.
An important aim of the NIGTC authors
is to interact with the wealth of significant New Testament research
published in recent articles and monographs. In this connection the
authors make their own scholarly contributions to the ongoing study of
the biblical text.
The text on which these commentaries are based is the UBS Greek New Testament,
edited by Kurt Aland and others. While engaging the major questions of
text and interpretation at a scholarly level, the authors keep in mind
the needs of the beginning student of Greek as well as the pastor or
layperson who may have studied the language at some time but does not
now use it on a regular basis.
