Download or read book The Epistle to the Philippians written by Karl Barth and published by SCM Press. This book was released on 2012-10-16 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr Barth's exposition of Philippians, first published in German in 1927, was not available inBnglish before this translation by Dr James Leitch. It has important differences in procedure from the famous Romans, and should not be missed by any student of Dr Barth's development. The commentary is also of interest as having been written primarily for the non-theologian. It is intelligible without a knowledge of Greek, although it has insights for the New Testament specialist. Like the Epistle of joy itself, Dr Barth's Philippians reflects the concern of a pastor that ordinary Christians should set their priorities right.
