Filipenses 2:11 Meaning and Commentary

Philippians 2:11

And [that] every tongue should confess
Whether of angels or men, or of men of whatsoever nation. Confession is either true and hearty, as when the mouth and heart agree in confessing, and which is made only by true believers; or verbal only, or in mere outward form, and by force, as in hypocrites, wicked men, and devils themselves; who all either have confessed, or will confess,

that Jesus Christ [is] Lord:
the holy angels confess him to be Lord, and their Lord truly, and are unfeignedly subject to him; and true believers heartily own him as their Lord, and cheerfully submit to his commands and ordinances; and the foolish virgins, and the goats on Christ's left hand, will, at the last day, call him Lord, Lord; and the worst of men, yea, even devils, will be obliged to own his lordship and dominion; which will be

to the glory of God the Father.
The Syriac reads, "his Father", who has chose and constituted him as the Mediator, invested him with his office, ordained him to be Judge of quick and dead, and given him all power and authority, and exalted him at his own right hand; so he that honoureth the Son, honoureth the Father also. The Vulgate Latin version renders the words, "because the Lord Jesus Christ is in the glory of God the Father": being in the form of God, of the same nature and essence with him, and equal to him; as he will appear to be at his second coming, for then he will come in the glory of his Father.

Filipenses 2:11 In-Context

9 Por lo tanto, Dios lo elevó al lugar de máximo honor
y le dio el nombre que está por encima de todos los demás nombres
10 para que, ante el nombre de Jesús, se doble toda rodilla
en el cielo y en la tierra y debajo de la tierra,
11 y toda lengua confiese que Jesucristo es el Señor
para la gloria de Dios Padre.
12 Brillen intensamente por Cristo
Queridos amigos, siempre siguieron mis instrucciones cuando estaba con ustedes; y ahora que estoy lejos, es aún más importante que lo hagan. Esfuércense por demostrar los resultados de su salvación obedeciendo a Dios con profunda reverencia y temor.
13 Pues Dios trabaja en ustedes y les da el deseo y el poder para que hagan lo que a él le agrada.
