Filipenses 2:18

18 Y asimismo gozaos también vosotros, y regocijaos conmigo.

Filipenses 2:18 Meaning and Commentary

Philippians 2:18

For the same cause also do ye joy and rejoice with me.
] He would not have them be sorrowful, should they hear of his death for the sake of the Gospel, and of his blood being poured out in such a cause, since it was as a libation on their faith, and for the confirmation of it, and would be gain to Christ, and his interest, and to the apostle also: and therefore they should be so far from indulging grief and sorrow on that account, that they should rather joy and rejoice with him, who was ready to be offered up, or poured out; since he had run out his race, and that not in vain, but to so good a purpose, and especially among them.

Filipenses 2:18 In-Context

16 reteniendo la Palabra de vida para que yo pueda gloriarme en el día del Cristo, que no he corrido en vano, ni trabajado en vano.

17 Y aun si soy derramado en libación sobre el sacrificio y servicio de vuestra fe, me gozo y congratulo por todos vosotros.

18 Y asimismo gozaos también vosotros, y regocijaos conmigo.

19 Mas espero en el Señor Jesús enviaros pronto a Timoteo, para que yo también esté de buen ánimo, entendido vuestro estado.

20 Porque a ninguno tengo tan unánime, y que con sincera afición esté solícito por vosotros.
