Filipenses 4:16 Meaning and Commentary

Philippians 4:16

For even in Thessalonica
When the apostle was there; for from Philippi he went to Thessalonica; see ( Acts 17:1 ) ;

ye sent once and again unto my necessity;
for his use and service, to support him while he was at that place, and relieve and assist him in his necessities; for the people at Thessalonica were either not able to communicate, or were not of a beneficent disposition, or the apostle did not care to be chargeable to them; and they seem many of them to have been idle and lazy, and therefore he wrought among them with his own hands to set them an example; and the Philippians hearing and knowing that this was the case, sent frequently, while he was here, some of the brethren with gifts unto him.

Filipenses 4:16 In-Context

14 Todavia fizestes bem em tomar parte na minha aflição.
15 Também vós sabeis, ó filipenses, que, no princípio do evangelho, quando parti da Macedônia, nenhuma igreja comunicou comigo no sentido de dar e de receber, senão vós somente;
16 porque estando eu ainda em TessalĂ´nica, nĂŁo uma sĂł vez, mas duas, mandastes suprir-me as necessidades.
17 Não que procure dádivas, mas procuro o fruto que cresça para a vossa conta.
18 Mas tenho tudo; tenho-o até em abundância; cheio estou, depois que recebi de Epafrodito o que da vossa parte me foi enviado, como cheiro suave, como sacrifício aceitável e aprazível a Deus.
