24 But G1161 I trust G3982 in G1722 the Lord G2962 that G3754 I G2064 also G2532 myself G846 shall come G2064 shortly. G5030
But G1161 withal G260 prepare G2090 me G3427 also G2532 a lodging: G3578 for G1063 I trust G1679 that G3754 through G1223 your G5216 prayers G4335 I shall be given G5483 unto you. G5213
When therefore G3767 I have performed G2005 this, G5124 and G2532 have sealed G4972 to them G846 this G5126 fruit, G2590 I will come G565 by G1223 you G5216 into G1519 Spain. G4681 And G1161 I am sure G1492 that, G3754 when I come G2064 unto G4314 you, G5209 I shall come G2064 in G1722 the fulness G4138 of the blessing G2129 of the gospel G2098 of Christ. G5547
And G2532 having this G5124 confidence, G3982 I know G1492 that G3754 I shall abide G3306 and G2532 continue G4839 with you G5213 all G3956 for G1519 your G5216 furtherance G4297 and G2532 joy G5479 of faith; G4102 That G2443 your G5216 rejoicing G2745 may be more abundant G4052 in G1722 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 for G1722 me G1698 by G1223 my G1699 coming G3952 to G4314 you G5209 again. G3825
But G1161 I trust G1679 in G1722 the Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 to send G3992 Timotheus G5095 shortly G5030 unto you, G5213 that G2443 I also G2504 may be of good comfort, G2174 when I know G1097 your G5216 state. G4012
Having G2192 many things G4183 to write G1125 unto you, G5213 I would G1014 not G3756 write with G1223 paper G5489 and G2532 ink: G3188 but G235 I trust G1679 to come G2064 unto G4314 you, G5209 and G2532 speak G2980 face G4750 to G4314 face, G4750 that G2443 our G2257 joy G5479 may be G5600 full.

Commentary on Philippians 2 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 2
The apostle proceeds to further exhortations to several duties, to be like-minded, and lowly-minded, which he presses from the example of Christ (v. 1-11), to be diligent and serious in the Christian course (v. 12, 13), and to adorn their Christian profession by several suitable graces (v. 14-18). He then concludes with particular notice and commendation of two good ministers, Timothy and Epaphroditus, whom he designed to send to them (v. 19-30).
Phl 2:1-11
The apostle proceeds in this chapter where he left off in the last, with further exhortations to Christian duties. He presses them largely to like-mindedness and lowly-mindedness, in conformity to the example of the Lord Jesus, the great pattern of humility and love. Here we may observe,
Phl 2:12-13
Phl 2:14-18
The apostle exhorts them in these verses to adorn their Christian profession by a suitable temper and behaviour, in several instances.
Phl 2:19-30
Paul takes particular notice of two good ministers; for though he was himself a great apostle, and laboured more abundantly than they all, yet he took all occasions to speak with respect of those who were far his inferiors.
